The Normanton car park is available to all our athletes. The parking fees are included in your entry. This will be valid from 4:00pm.
Rules

Unfortunately you cannot run with a buggy or your dog on a lead.
Dogs are welcome at the NightWalk but not the NightRun.
Please do not pass on your entry without informing us. Changing entries will only be considered within the transfer policy.

Terrain
After a few hundred metres the majority of the route is Tarmac. The course begins in Normanton Car park. We cannot promise there won't be damp sections, especially in the wooded areas. At this time of year the tracks can be muddy and covered in leaves. We suggest caution especially in reduced visibility.

We will email everyone a race guide and final event timings in the week prior to the event.
Info for Thursday Walk only
Can you walk for charity?
You are very welcome to walk for charity. We would love you to raise lots of money for a good cause.
Do you need a torch?
You DO NEED A TORCH. If you are walking in a pair, feel free to share one. We are all adults, you can make that choice. But don't shout at us if you end up in the dark without a light. It is a night walk. It will be dark. you don't have to light the torch the entire time. It can ruin the atmosphere, but please be sensible.
What is an average walking pace?
Google seems to think around 3 miles an hour. That means 2 hours will be an average finish time.
How will that take to complete 10km?
Each individual will be different. We have allowed 4 hours. That is twice the average walking pace.
Can I eat on the way?
Yes, but please clear up after yourself.
Can I take a rucksack?
Please do. You might want some extra clothing. Unless you get warm and need to strip a few layers.
Do I need to walk the entire 10km?
No, we will have turn options throughout. Please come and enjoy the route, challenge yourself, but don't feel like you must finish the entire 10km. You do need to get yourself back from wherever you decide to turn unless you require medical assistance.
Are dogs welcome?
Dogs are welcome for the Thursday Walk, irresponsible owners are not.
Friendly dogs only please. They must get along with other dogs. Please clear any mess up after you! On or off the track. Enjoy walking your dog but please respect the venue and the event so we can continue to allow dogs to come along.
They must be on a short lead at all times. Long extendable leads in the dark are asking for trouble. Do not let them chase the sheep in the dark. You are responsible for your dog at all times on the site. We want to allow people this option, but are not taking responsibility for everyone and their dog! Sorry for the lecture!
