Distance to Start from Event Centre and car park - 1.5km of flat easy walking over an exposed plain, crossing a country road after 1km.  Please take care.

It is a punching start.  Should you miss your start time you will be started at the first available and appropriate time at the discretion of the starter.  We expect some courses to be very busy so you may have to wait a considerable time.

String Course – Registration and start will be within 200m of the main assembly in an area of the camp site signposted as the β€˜Glades’.
