Event information
Please note the course is a mix of trail and paths and we recommend trail shoes for this event - The course has also a gradual incline for the first 2km's - 5k is one lap and the 10k is two laps (please note the half marathon is 4 laps) - off road buggies are ok - wheelchair friendly however some sections are on grass/trail - note the course may be altered at any point up to event day if necessary
The run will take you up and around Richmond Park and the course is a mix of country paths, a little bit of cross country and as you may have guessed slightly undulating! Remember its all good fun and you can walk, jog or run!! Please note the course may be altered prior to the event and if so we will inform you of this.
Please note that the start of the run will be staggered to abide by Richmond Park Policy. However this will not affect your time as our Results Base timing system will record your time from when you cross the starting mat.

Please keep the volume at a level whereby you can hear any important announcements that may be made. (this is allowed at running events but not triathlon, please see last faq for more info)
