Entry Fee
Race entry is £15 for 10k, £10 for 5k and £5 for the youth race. You can enter here.
Suitable For Novices
Yes – but the course does have some climbs (total elevation gain of 160m for the 10k distance) so first-timers would definitely need to have some prior experience of running up hills. Alternatively the Short Course option is only 5km and with a total elevation of 80m is a perfect challenge for those athletes new to running, ParkRunners and ‘couch to 5k’ runners . And the 2km youth race is perfect for budding runners 11 – 15 years of age.
Suitable For Elites
Yes
Open To Ages
Competitors for the 10k and 5k must be 16 years+ at the time of competing, unless you are a competent youth runner, and have permission from a parent or guardian, who will need to sign a waiver at registration on your behalf. Youth runners for the 2km distance must be 11 -15 years at the time of competing.
