OMG (One Mile 2 Go) Run at Bawsey Country Park

OMG is a lap-based running event held at Bawsey Country Park, PE32 1EP, located on the B1145 between the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and Gayton. The event offers multiple distance choices:

• 5k
• 10k
• Half Marathon
• Full Marathon
• Ultra Marathon

The course runs over sand, gravel and grass and is described as a trail event. Organisers suggest road trainers but note that trail shoes may be useful depending on recent weather. Lapped formats are used for longer distances: a heavy half marathon is set as 5 laps with an option to change to 6 or 7 on the day, and the standard ultra is 9 laps with the option to increase up to 12 laps according to time available. Event cut offs are set at six hours and four hours.

Race HQ and the aid station are located at the start and lap point; there is an aid station on every lap. The start area is visible from the car park and the event uses a mass start. Participants collect bib numbers at registration on arrival. There is no baggage service so runners are asked to leave belongings in their vehicles; the route passes the car park each lap. The event has gone cupless so runners should bring their own bottles or cups for refilling. Parking is included in the event cost and entrants should collect a parking code before departing. Bespoke finisher medals are provided unless a standard finisher medal option was selected. Virtual places are available through the organiser for those who cannot attend in person.
