A full lap is described as 7 km (4.37 miles) with a possible change to a 3.28 mile loop depending on course conditions. The lap contains 3 km and 5 km turn points to accommodate age-related distance rules. It is three laps for a half marathon, six laps for a marathon, and seven or more laps for an ultra.
The course runs along a stretch of the River Thames and is fully signed. About 60% is on a well-made path or tarmac and the remainder is grass and light trail that can become muddy. Road shoes are suitable year round; trail shoes may help on the softer sections.
Finishers who complete at least 3 km receive a themed medal. Distance pins are available for half marathon, mega-half, marathon, 50 km and ultra achievements and are attached to the medal ribbon. Finishers receive a standard or vegan goody bag. Toilets and changing facilities are at race HQ. A bag drop is provided but is unstaffed and left at the participant's risk. A large pay on exit carpark is available at Runnymede Pleasure Grounds. Headphones are allowed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
