Parking
The course is a mixture of terrains. There is a large section on grass, due to this the course is suitable for wheelchair users with assistance. Please note that the weather may impact the suitability of the course, in this instance a shorter course may be offered. The event site is also on grass which may become unsuitable for disabled access in poor weather.
Supporter / spectator access
Inviting your friends and family to support you on the day is a great idea, they can share in the joy with you as you cross the finish line and ring the bell. They can also help you with those important things, like holding your belongings whilst you walk, jog or run round the course!
Please note, whilst we hope we can open our events to families and friends supporting on the day, this may not be possible due to government guidelines around COVID-19. We will update on this nearer the time.
