Every finisher receives a medal and a small number of trophies are available for winners. Race packs are collected at registration on the day, bag storage is provided but space is limited, and toilets are located within the event hub. Due to park restrictions the event hub is based near the People's Palace on the path from Nelson's Monument. Car parking around Glasgow Green is strictly limited; several nearby train and underground stations serve the area. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
