Rules
## The short version
The 10K will be run under England Athletics rules. We have applied for an England Athletics race licence and course measurement.
Minimum age for the 10K is 15 on race day. No headphones that block outside sound — bone-conduction headphones are fine.
Wheelchair users are welcome in a day chair. Racing wheelchairs and handbikes are not permitted.
No dogs, buggies, bikes, scooters or unregistered runners on the 10K course.
Guide runners enter free — email us and we will pair the entries.
Your number must be worn on your front, unfolded and unaltered. We plan to allow free transfers to another runner until 31 March.
## Results and photos
Live tracking on the day, full results within an hour of the last finisher, and race photos after the race. Nothing is published here before 18 April 2027 — this is the first running of the race.
