Facilities and entries

Registration and the start/finish are located in the pub beer garden, where race numbers, shirts and race items are distributed. All starters receive a vest or T-shirt and all finishers receive a medal and a free beverage; presenting the race number at the bar gives 10% off food. Bags may be left in the beer garden at the owner’s risk. Parking is available opposite the Black Bull and in the pub car-park; a cycle route through Admirals Park links the train station and city centre to the venue. Entry prices change by date, and the event status is listed as open with a closing date of 31 Jul 2026. Organiser: Multisport Management.
