The half marathon will also be one loop and we will be using the Windmill Route.

There will be a 5k and 10k turnaround point for those wanting to do a shorter distance.

There will be an aid station of drinks and nibbles every 10k.

Parking is also included in your entry price.

The Race HQ/Base Camp is located at the start and Lap point and at the base camp we will have our water/aid station.

Upon entry you will receive an email confirmation from your entry portal and Zig Zag Running. This will also contain the link to the race briefing information pack.

We have designed a Bespoke medal for the event, which you will receive at the end of the race. Or if you choose the lucky dip finisher option (if available), you will choose from a selection of previous or finisher medal.

This route is all road, they are quiet roads however, you will need to be aware of traffic when stepping out and ideally wear something bright

This event is ideal for runners who want to get a marathon GFA place when selecting Marathon distance.

Please note the event has gone cupless - so please bring your own bottles or cups for refilling.

With immediate effect our transfers policy will be as follows.

  • Participants are able to transfer their places to another event as long as there is more than 7 days before the event and must be confirmed at the same time as the request.
  • Participants are able to transfer their places to other participants up to 48 hours before the event (Zig Zag Running will obviously need to know the details of the changes monies to be sorted out between the 2 participants)
  • If you wish to transfer your place and its less than 7 days you can pay a £10 transfer fee to another event. However, this can only be done upto 48 hours before the event.
