Run Richmond Park 5k and 10k Race 4

There will be loads of great entry benefits including full race chip timing, a super cool medal, sweets, drinks and a load of fun, smiles, hugs and high fives along the way.

The run will take you up and around Richmond Park and the course is a mix of country paths, a little bit of cross country and as you may have guessed slightly undulating! Remember it's all good fun and you can walk, jog or run! Please note the course may be altered prior to the event and if so we will inform you of this.

Please note that the start of the run will be staggered to abide by Richmond Park Policy. However this will not affect your time as our Results Base timing system will record your time from when you cross the starting mat.

ARRIVAL AND REGISTRATION:

Registration will be open from 8.30am and will close at 9.50am so please arrive nice and early.

Bag storage is available but please note space is limited so travel as lightly as possible.

Please note you will collect your race pack at registration on the day of the event.

Race information will be sent by email pre-event and this will tell you what your race number is so you know where to queue on the day of the event. You will be able to view all your race details and race number by logging in to your Fix Events profile.

You will be using our Chip on Bib race numbers and it is important these are displayed on your outer garment to ensure 1) we can see your race number when running and 2) to help with the timing system to read your time.

***

There will be marshals around the course to support and encourage you.

Water is available at the start/finish and at the 5km point. If you require additional fluid between these points please bring your own.

Please take care when running around the course as this is public land and local residents will be on the Park. Please always stay on the left unless otherwise guided. Be aware that there are deer in the Park and they occasionally cross the walking paths and roads.

Can I register on the day of the event?

This is possible only if the event isn’t sold out. This will be stated on the event website prior to race day.

How do I know if I am registered?

You will receive an email confirming your entry. If a friend or colleague has entered as long as they have used your email address in the entry you will receive confirmation.

Will I receive race information in the lead-up to my event?

Email updates prior to your event will be sent out and you can view all event details, news and offers by logging in to your user profile.

Will I be chip timed?

Yes, all events (unless otherwise stated) are chip timed! In most cases you will use disposable race chips. You need to ensure you put these correctly on your shoe (race instructions will be given via email and this info is on your event information page on your event page).

Can I find the race number list prior to the event?

Yes, your event race list will be online approximately a week prior to your event. Please make a note of your race number and that of friends as you will collect your race pack on the morning of the run.

What happens if I don't receive my race email?

If you don’t receive your race email it may be because the wrong email address was entered or the race email went in to your junk mail so please check carefully. All information can be found by logging in to your user profile and your race number will show within this account area.

Can I enter a team?

Absolutely! Get as many friends, family or colleagues together and run as a team. You are not required to run together and each person will receive their own time, however it's just fun to run under a team name.

Can I run with a buggy?

Yes, this is typically OK for most locations, however please check the run route course as some locations can be a mix of path, trail, grass so not always suitable for running with a buggy. Also please try and stay to the left as much as possible to give room to other runners.

Can children take part?

We typically allow children to take part in all our events (unless specific information is given for a set event). Please note that children remain the responsibility of their parents/guardian throughout our events. If the parent/guardian is satisfied the child/children can confidently run unaccompanied they may do so, with a parent/guardian remaining onsite at all times.
