THE EVENT
At 08:30 we will countdown and everyone will start their first lap together. You will process around the course following the marked route. Various split points are indicated by signs and marshalls for the blue, red, black courses. On completion of your course you will return to the start where you can access snacks/drinks etc and chill ready for the next lap.

You can change down distance at any time based on how the day is going but you must complete all 10 laps and return to the race village within each hour. Failure to complete a lap and return to the start within the hour will mean you can’t progress onto the next hour.
