Amended Race start time.
The steering group has taken the decision to bring the start time of both the races forward by 30 minutes to allow for the A6 stage of the 10K race to be completed at a time where the volume of traffic should be lower.
The 10k start will now be at 10:00am and the 2k start will be at 10:10am.

Parking
On race day parking in the village itself is very limited. This is because many roads are closed and residents have to use the available on street parking. However, we have the use of a small car park near the middle of the village, kindly offered by “Hawkes Technical” and a large car park at Hall Farm on the Higham road leading out of Stanwick.
The Course.
The 10k route is on gently undulating roads around the villages of stanwick and Chelveston. The course is fully marshalled and has several drink stations around the course. 2 certified TMO`s for course management. A lead car and tail car are used during the road run. Full first aid cover.
