Update Saturday 19th June

The weather looks grim overnight, but should be alright for our run on Sunday. The field will be wet underfoot and potentially slippery for the start and finish section on the grass. There will be puddles on the road sections, particularly just after the 2km point.
Parking is at Perins School, the Train Station or in the town and is not marshalled. Please take care not to block any local access or driveways.
Please bring a mask to wear when you collect your number and in the loos. We’ll have lots of hand sanitizer available.
Remember: Hands, Face, Space, Fresh Air. We’ll have plenty of fresh air tomorrow!
The Arlebury Cafe will be open for coffee and various delicious breakfast treats.
Just a reminder that the loos are in the Arlebury Park Car Park!! Please don’t use the ones inside the building. Please don’t change in the loos – the queues will become horrendous.
And there are no changing rooms – so come dressed to run. We will have a baggage area under a tent, but we can’t guarantee security.
Please help us to keep you safe by socially distancing as much as possible, spreading out at the start (all times are chip times) and listening to the marshals.

Instructions for runners

Entries are now closed and we’re sorting out the entries from last year and this year to get a consolidated list.

We’ll post some instructions for runners here over the next couple of days. Essential things to note: no changing rooms; only portaloos in the car park (please don’t sue the loos for changing!); collect your number on the day; bring a mask; no water point on route – sealed water bottles at the start/finish; baggage area outside – not a secure room this year.

Number collection opens 0830. Race starts at 1000. It will be a spaced out, rolling start; all timings are chip time.

Update 9 June

We’re still planning to go ahead on 20th June!

We have a few additional places available. Please email rotaryalresford@gmail.com for details.

A reminder that we’ll be operating under a number of restrictions: social distancing; chip timing and a rolling start; no changing rooms; outside baggage area; no water on the course (water available at the start/finish area); no spectators; no medals or T-shirts (sorry); no prize giving ceremony etc
