Course and race features
The start and finish are in the centre of Media City. Runners follow a roughly 2.5 km loop that crosses the canal and passes the Imperial War Museum and the ITV and BBC television studios. The course is described as flat and uses paths and pavements inside Media City; it is not a closed road race. The 5K uses two laps of the loop and the 10K uses four laps. Each kilometre is marked and there will be on-course helpers.
Included with entry are a unique themed medal, free official race photos, chip-timed results, and post-race goodies. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
