Half marathon entrants must carry mandatory kit: a backpack or running vest with water, a lightweight jacket, a fully charged mobile phone, and gels or snacks. Random kit checks will be carried out.
Live Chip Timing is used, provided by Timing Up North, to record race results. All finishers receive a bespoke finisher’s medal, Wild Deer merchandise, and a snack. A custom event t-shirt is available as an optional extra for £14. Parking is available on-site for £5. Entry fees are shown at £25 for the 10 km and £28 for the half marathon.
