Sunday 25th May - 9am Start
Transport: If you would like a lift with another member ideally arrange it directly, or email [email protected] and we will try to assist. Let us know to if you are driving and have spare seats too.
Venue/HQ: Sixfields Stadium, Upton Way, Northampton, NN5 5QA
Parking: Parking will be available in the stadium's West car park (opposite the West stand/reception). There are also other carparks close by, which are free or only have a small charge for Sunday parking.
Start: The race starts at 9am from inside the stadium. There will be a warm up available 15 minutes before the race start. We will do a group photo at 8.40am & after the last member has finished.
As normal we will cheer all club members home, and if your still energetic after your run, it would be nice to go back and encourage others, but make sure you dont get in the way of other runners, and follow any marshal or event instructions.
Route: The course leaves the stadium, and heads up through Sixfields, before heading along Weedon Rd (in the direction of Harpole/Kislnigbury), before turning left down and through Pineham Industrial Estate/Village. You will then head up Upton Way heading back towards the stadium, before completing a couple of “out and backs” - a long one (1 mile each way), along Edgar Mobbs Way, and then a short one (about 300m each way), around the West and North sides of the stadium. You will then head back into the stadium to finish.
On the day: Please wear your club kit, especially if entered affiliated. According to the entry list, there is around 30 DRR members signed up.
Do not race if you have been unwell. Always follow marshals instructions. Follow green km signs for 10k. There will be a water station at the halfway point of the 10k, and bottled water for you at the finish.
Facilities: Bag drop. Toilets - these will be located in the west stand. Refreshments. Spectators welcome.
Drink / Food after: Come and join us after for a drink / food at the Hungry Horse, Sixfields.
