About the race
The Tiger Trot is a 7 hour Time Challenge held by Saturn Running at The Last Hop, Thames Edge Court in Staines. The event uses a signed looped course along a stretch of the River Thames with mainly well made paths and tarmac and a very short grass section. Road shoes are suitable year round. The regular lap measures about 7 km (4.37 miles) but may be altered to a 3.28 mile loop depending on course conditions. A minimum distance of 3 km is required to be classed as a finisher. The lap includes 3 km and 5 km turn points to support compliance with UK Athletics age rules.
The event is licensed by the Trail Running Association and held under UK Athletics rules. Entry prices vary by distance; the lowest entry price is available to members and is £10 lower than full price. Members are guaranteed entry and receive a mini-me medal pin. UK Athletics affiliated club members receive a £2 discount on entry.
Finishers who complete at least 3 km receive a themed tiger medal. Distance pins are awarded for Half-Marathon, Mega-Half, Marathon, 50 km and Ultra achievements and are attached to the medal ribbon. All finishers receive a goody bag with a vegan option available on request.
Facilities include toilets at The Last Hop. Parking is available at Bridge Street Car Park, Staines. A drinks and aid table is provided at the start/finish area each lap. A guarded bag drop is not provided and headphones are permitted. Events take place on public footpaths so other path users should be considered.
