Course markings include trail flags and A5 arrows. Marshals are positioned on the route to guide runners and provide encouragement. GPX files are provided for both the half marathon and the 10k courses for route planning.
An event village is present with food and drink options and partner-provided free items at the finish. The organiser notes ongoing work on event sustainability. Volunteers support tasks such as managing stalls and distributing finish-line medals, and volunteers form part of the event operation.
