Participant guide

1. Ensure your details are up to date

Your Race Pack contains your running number and kitbag. It will be sent to your Team Captain who will pass it on to you.

2. Plan your journey to the Start Line

Where possible, we recommend travelling to Honourable Artillery Company Grounds on foot, by bicycle, or by public transport. A free bike park is available on a first-come-first-served basis.

Participant travel is one of the biggest contributors to carbon emissions at our events, so please use public transport if possible.

To plan your journey to and from Honourable Artillery Company Grounds, please use TfL.

3. Get to know what is available to you on Event Day

We have a Sensory Calm Space, for anyone who wants to take a moment away from the crowds, and a Multi Faith Prayer Space that is open to all.

If your period falls on Event Day, you can find tampons and pads at the info points and drink stations.

If you have a bladder or bowel condition, a Just Can’t Wait Toilet Card explains you have a medical condition and need urgent access to a toilet. You can download the card, issued by the Bladder and Bowel Community, for free. From that page, you can also purchase a plastic card.

If you are visually impaired, or your disability or medical condition means you need a support runner, you can apply for a free place for them. Please email us outlining your request and the reasons for it.

If you would like a Support Runner, The Richard Whitehead Supported Runners Project can pair you with someone for Event Day. You can register your interest on their site.

4. Set up your fundraising page

You can sign up to Enthuse, our official fundraising platform.
