Event Overview
The Carlisle Tri Club hosts an annual running event featuring two distinct distances at the Carlisle Race Course. Participants can choose between a 10 km and a 5 km race. Both courses are officially measured and certified by the Association of UK Course Measurers to ensure accuracy. The event utilizes electronic chip timing to record the results for all participants, with live data accessible online.
Course Details
The available distances are:
- 10 km: Follows a route primarily on quiet country roads and concludes in front of the racecourse grandstand.
- 5 km: Consists of two laps on a traffic-free tarmac track that circles the perimeter of the racecourse.
A water station is positioned at the halfway mark for those completing the 10 km distance. The terrain includes a mix of public roads for the longer distance and a dedicated tarmac surface for the shorter race.
Participant Information
All finishers receive a bespoke medal upon completing their chosen distance. The event has specific age requirements based on the distance: the 5 km is open to individuals aged 11 and older, while the 10 km requires participants to be at least 15 years old. Registration remains open until two days before the event, subject to availability within the strictly limited field of participants.
