Course, rules and logistics

The course is mostly flat and offroad, running along the water's edge with one or two hills and a few eroded path sections where extra care is advised. Alternative courses may be used if conditions dictate a change. Race numbers are collected on race morning and must be worn on the front for lap and time recording. Results will be published online as soon as possible after the event; organisers aim to have results within 24 hours.
