Crocodile 8 is a club race around the villages of Tillington and Burghill on a mix of trails, tarred paths and woodland. The course includes steep climbs and sharp descents and features music at points along the route. Chip timing is provided by Ready Set Go. The event is licensed by the TRA and held under UK Athletics rules.
Race headquarters are at Burghill Community Academy where number pick-up, toilets, bag storage, refreshments, kids races and an after-event party with a bar take place.

Free parking is provided at Court Farm farm yard, approximately a 10 to 15 minute walk to the start and finish. Signs and officials will direct parking areas. Car sharing is encouraged where possible.
