Location and race details

The event is held at Bawsey Country Park, PE32 1EP, located on the B1145 between the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and Gayton. The course is a trail route that includes sand, gravel and grass surfaces. Road trainers are suggested; trail shoes are optional depending on recent weather.

Race HQ is at the start and lap point. There is an aid station on every lap and no baggage service - participants are asked to leave belongings in their vehicles and they will pass the car park each lap. The event is cupless, so participants must bring their own bottle or cup for refilling. A six-hour event cut off applies; a four-hour cut off applies for later starters. A bespoke finisher medal is provided, with a standard finisher option available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
