Active Root will supply a ginger sports drink and there will be water and bananas at the finish; an aid station is placed on the half marathon route.

Safety information notes uneven surfaces including tracks through woods, sand, grass, tarmac and mud. Earphones are prohibited. The half marathon is not suitable for pushchairs or dogs; run buggies are permitted on the 10 km, 5 km and fun run courses.
