Archived route and safety brief
Race format and conduct
9 km individual timed effort. Team points use aggregate individual times. Competitors stay on the marked route, follow marshals and do not overtake within 50 m of the finish.
Warm-up and cool-down are required, along with correct PT kit, hydration and awareness of hazards.
Marshals and course controls
Four marshal positions are listed: the first woodland track junction, bridge crossing, field-edge turn and final approach to the Pavilion.
Marshals wear high-visibility clothing, carry communications equipment and report injuries through the control point. The plan places the duty medic at the Pavilion finish and keeps an emergency access route available.
Equipment and administration
The equipment list includes bibs, radios, route signage, water-station kit and first-aid equipment. Post-race administration covers cool-down, water, a debrief and verification of individual timings.
