Course, facilities and race features

The Half Marathon is one lap starting and finishing in front of the main building inside Denbies Vineyard. The route is mainly on trails, undulating and very hilly in places, and uses sections of the Pilgrims Way and North Downs Way with views over the Mole Valley and Ranmore Common. The Half Marathon visits five drinks stations (six wine samples in total, one station visited twice); the 10K visits two wine stations. Runners over 18 may sample wine; underage participants are offered soft drinks and are identified by markings on their numbers. The event uses chip timing and provides full medical support. Facilities include secure baggage, toilets and changing areas (no showers), free on-site parking and refreshments for purchase. There will be musical entertainment at drinks stations and at the finish. Headphones are allowed but runners retain responsibility for following marshal instructions.
