Start & Finish Details

Start

The 10K starts approximately 130m

from the gates outside of the Primary

School at 09:30 and the 1K directly

outside the school at approximately

09:35. We ask all entrants to be in

position ten minutes before, to allowfor a prompt start. Please observe

the directions of the start marshals.

We request that all entrants place

themselves in an appropriate time

zone once at the start to prevent

barging at the starting signal. Late

arrivals will need to start from the

back of the grid, regardless of

expected time.

Finish

Although we are

using

electronic

timing

equipment

and video

for the

10K,

marshals at

the finish will

also take your

time and finish

position. This is

purely a back up, but it is

vital for the accuracy of results that

you line up in the order you crossed

the finishing line. Please leave the

area at the end of the funnel as soon

as youve been recorded. The

marshals will be unable to tell you

your time or position, so please dont

distract them. There will be a Race

clock by the finish line so use this for

an immediate guide if necessary. Real

time results for the 10K will be

available at Race HQ and on Full on

Sports website later in the day

(fullonsport.co.uk). Finally we ask

that you do not leave the finish pens

until a marshal has removed your

timing chip and dont forget your

goody bag and bottled water! First

Aid is also available here.

Please read the medical advice page

carefully. First Aid posts are situated

at the school site and at 5K as well as

medical support at the start / finishareas. If you experience difficulty

stop running and seek out the

nearest marshal and request

help. A vehicle will be available to

pick up entrants who are unable to

complete the course and will return

them to Race HQ. If you do drop

out it is important you assist us

by reporting your name and race

number to one of ourmarshals.

Our trophy

presentations will

take place at

11:15 in the

School

playground at

Race HQ, This

year, we will beawarding 10K

trophies to our

fastest three men

and women and also for

age category winners, so

runners will be eligible for more than

one prize, please stay and support the

winners. There will be plenty to keep

you occupied at Race HQ, including

teas and coffees, delicious cakes, abarbeque, live music, an event

photographer and a bouncy castle, if

you have the energy!
