Start This event uses a mass start where all competitors start at once, and seed themselves (quickest at the front) at the start line. The start line for the 10k and the half marathon is shown on the course map. The half marathon and training runners start at a different location to the 10km runners. Please pay close attention. You will need to be wearing your race number to gain access to the race course. Please ensure that it is visible for the duration of the event. The finish The finish arch is in the pit lane adjacent to the race track. Well done you will receive your medal and post-race nutrition.
