Water stations are positioned at approximately 5 km, 11 km and 16 km and provide cups of water. Toilets are available at the start/finish area and near 5 km and 16 km.
A bag drop operates from Market Square. Race numbers are posted to many entries before the event; late or overseas entries must collect numbers at specified collection points.
