Given some narrow sections of the 10k course and in the interest of the safety of all participants, we regret that we are unable to allow dogs to accompany runners on the 10k course. Dogs are allowed on the fun run on the Polo fields (on a short lead!), but not afterwards in the Rugby Stadium.
Yes, feel free to do so! But please bear in mind that the 10k course is narrow in places, and other runners may need to get past you. There are no narrow sections on the fun run.
No, but there will be toilets at the start and finish – based in the Army Rugby Stadium and the Army Athletics Stadium.
Yes, you can. Please email the race organiser. Any photos where your race number is visible will be omitted from any race photos that will be published by us online or in the media.
The minimum age for entering the 2k fun run is 5 years old. However, children under the age of 9 years old MUST be accompanied by an adult at all times.
The fun run completes a 2k (approximately) lap within the Polo fields, which is the starting location for the 2k and 10k events. The 2k will follow roughly the same route as the 10k, but the 10k will start a few minutes earlier so it won’t be possible to run with your child on the 2k and run the 10k.
Dogs are permitted (on a lead) on Queen’s Parade, but unfortunately they are not permitted in the Rugby Stadium, where the 10k finishes (except for guide dogs). Therefore, dogs are not permitted on the 10k. This is a restriction imposed by the land manager and is out of our control.
Entries are NOT AVAILABLE IN ADVANCE – they will only be available on the day. Go to Registration at the Rugby Stadium on Sunday morning and pick up a free fun run number.
