Baggage
We will have an informal baggage drop for this event. Please limit the number of belongings you bring to the event and if possible leave anything in a car.
During the race
There will be marshals all around the course and you will see mile markers in the form of black signs for the half marathon, and red KM signs for the 5k & 10k as well as arrows to direct you.
The course consists of laps around the lake and will involve 1 lap for the 5k, 2 laps for the 10k and 4 laps for the Half Marathon.
If you need to overtake on the course please be sure to take a wide berth around the runner in front.
Please discard any bottles or rubbish in the litter zones just passed each water station.

Spectators
Spectators are asked to arrive in the same car as the athlete they are supporting. The course is lapped so you will see them on numerous occasions.

The main event car park is at the Boathouse (next to the event village), not at the top of the lake where you enter.
Cars will drive down from the main entrance towards the boathouse, and will directly turn back on themselves at a mini roundabout and park facing the exit, using a one way system. This system will be managed by parking stewards and we’ll also ensure there is clear way-finding signage on the day.
Please be aware, from the main entrance to the car park it is just over a mile walk.
Please follow the directions of the marshals to the car park by the boathouse as this will ensure a short walk to the event village.
Nearest Train stations: Slough and Windsor & Eton Riverside
Getting Here by Bicycle
The park is easily accessible by bicycle. Cycle parking is available in the park.
