Rising Sun Country Park 5k/10k/Half Marathon - Up and Running Events
This event takes place at Rising Sun Country Park in Newcastle, United Kingdom and offers multiple race distances. Entries are made through the booking provider Let's Do This, which requires an account to complete registration. Race-day information is sent by email in the week before the event and race bibs are collected at the registration desk on the day.
All races are chip timed; the timing chip is attached to the race bib and should be secured to an outer garment to ensure it functions correctly. Participants receive a measured course, a finishers medal, hydration stations, kilometre markers, course marshals, music, an instructor-led warm up, and a goody bag with sports nutrition snacks.
Distances:
- 5k
- 10k
- Half marathon
Age guidelines follow Scottish Athletics: 5k runners should be 11 or above, and 10k runners should be above 15. Children remain the responsibility of their parent or guardian, who should stay onsite.
