Once again, we are delighted to be able to return to racing. The measures we have introduced have been well received and those who have taken part in our events in recent months have felt safe. We are grateful to you all for your co-operation which has allowed us to continue to bring you live events. We are following the latest advice laid down by UK Athletics and this includes all runners agreeing to a Code of Conduct, which has been revised in line with the new requirements.

Please remember that our staff and volunteers are trying to help give you the best possible race experience, whilst also ensuring everybody stays safe – your assistance to help them do so is much appreciated.
Whilst the current Covid restrictions are in place, we’d request you please observe our Participants Code of Conduct to ensure a safe and enjoyable event for everyone.
