Please car share where possible and consider using public transport.
Please check back for details on electric charging points and bike racks.
The route is mostly flat and on paths, so is suitable for wheelchair users with assistance. There is also a grass path on the far side of the south lake which can be bypassed using the lakeside tarmac path. The start and finish area is on grass which could get boggy in the case of wet weather however there are tarmac paths surrounding it.

Bring a water bottle
We’re trying to reduce single-use plastic at Race for Life. Please bring your own reusable water bottle, already filled. We'll provide an ecofriendly water-refill station at the finish that uses as little single-use plastic as possible.
Have the right kit
It’s a good idea to check the weather before your event and dress accordingly. Think breathable sports gear (leggings and shorts are ideal) and well-fitting trainers. For Pretty Muddy, wear something you don’t mind getting dirty.

Be sun smart
Stay sun safe by finding shade when you’re not on the course and covering up with clothes, a hat and sunglasses. On parts you can’t cover, use sunscreen with at least SPF15 and a 4 or 5 star rating. Find out more about being sun smart.
Your back sign and race number
Remember to bring your back sign and Race number which will be sent to you in the post – don’t forget safety pins so you can attach them to you.
