The course will be mostly on tarmac surface with some dirt track included and is considered flat with a few mild undulations. There will be mile markers and two water stations are on route. Toilets will be available on the course. Water will also be provided at the finish.
There will be professional photographers at the event – don’t forget to give a smile when passing the camera especially at the finish (if possible).
Due to the time of the year and the fact that the run is along an exposed coastline, it is advisable to bring suitable clothing to possibly wear during the run, to safeguard against the possible conditions.

Prizes will be awarded to the winners of each category. Trophies will be awarded to the first three to finish in each of the categories. There will be event t-shirt and medals for all finishers.

PLEASE ENSURE your race timing chip is returned at the end of the event. There will be collection boxes near the finish line for you to place the chip into. Those not returned will be invoiced £20
