Ooops I Ran It Again - North
This is a Britney inspired 7 hour Time Challenge held within Herrington Country Park at Chester Road, Penshaw, New Herrington. The format gives each participant control over how many laps to complete; the minimum recorded distance to be an official finisher is 3 km. A full lap is described as 7 km (4.37 miles) but the course may be changed to a 3.28 mile loop depending on course conditions. The event is licensed by the Trail Running Association and held under UK Athletics rules.
Finishers who complete at least 3 km receive a themed medal. Runners who cover half marathon distance or more receive distance pins; available pins include Half Marathon, Mega Half, Marathon, 50 km and Ultra. There is a choice of standard or vegan goody bags for finishers when requested at entry.
An aid table and drinks table are provided at the start and finish of each lap with drinks and snacks including crisps, cheese, fruit, cookies and vegan options. Toilets are available at the venue HQ. Pay and display parking is available in the city centre and nearby streets; participants are requested not to park in the rowing club car park. Headphones are allowed. A non secure bag drop is available at the start and finish area. Final race instructions are sent by email in the week before the event and numbers are collected on the day at race registration. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
