Your race numbers will be posted to you about 4 weeks before the event.

Please ensure that your address details are up to date within your SI Entries account.

Yes.

To ensure the smooth running of the race, a 10-mile cut-off time of 2 hours 20 minutes has been in place for several years. This roughly equates to a finish time of 4 hours 45 minutes.

New for 2025, we’ve introduced a 15-mile cut-off at the same 14-minute-per-mile pace, 3 hours 30 minutes.

Our strict cut-off times are based on gun time, not chip time.

These are very achievable targets and necessary to comply with local road reopening requirements.

Changing rooms, along with shower facilities are available at our pre-race headquarters.
