The course runs along a stretch of the River Thames, is fully signed, and requires no navigation. Approximately 60% is on a well-made path or tarmac; the rest is grass and light trail that can become muddy. Road shoes are suitable year round; trail shoes can be used for extra grip. A drinks and aid table is provided at the start/finish of each lap with savoury, sweet, fruit, cheese and vegan options. Finishers who complete at least 3 km receive a finisher medal and distance pins are awarded for half-marathon and greater achievements. A goody bag is provided, with a vegan option available.
Toilets are available at the venue but there are no separate changing rooms or showers. Parking is available at Bridge Street Car Park, Staines TW18 4TP. Number pick up takes place on the day at race registration and final instructions are sent by email before the event. A bag drop is available but is not secure. Headphones are permitted and participants are asked to be considerate of other public footpath users. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
