The Bronsens Cotswold Classic

RACE CATEGORIES & PRIZES
Please refer to the list displayed on race day. Wine will be given to the 1st Male Team (4 to count) and 1st Female Team (3 to count) in the 10 mile road race. We aim to start the presentations at midday, however there is a chance this may run late if eligible runners are still on the course.

RACE PROFILE
The race is over an undulating course starting and finishing at The Kings School. There will be two water stations on the course and one at the finish area. There will be plenty of marshals on the course. Please obey their instructions at all times. Mile markers are at every mile, and a time clock at the finish.

COURSE SAFETY
The 10 mile race is run under UKA rules. Runners should adhere to instructions of marshals. As mentioned previously runners using head phones will be disqualified.
Spectators must not follow the race on bicycles, skates, scooters, motorbike or car. No dogs with runners please. There will be a lead car, and a bike or car following at the rear of the field. There is an official time limit for recording finishers of 2.5 hours, after which time the race officials and marshals will be withdrawn and any runners remaining on the course will do so at their own risk

USE OF HEADPHONES IS NOT PERMITTED AND WILL RESULT IN DISQUALIFICATION

Please note that any runners using headphones during the race will be disqualified. The roads will NOT be closed to traffic so it is essential that all runners are able to hear instructions from marshals and course officials and that they can hear traffic and emergency vehicles approaching from both directions.

RUNNING NUMBERS
You will need to pick up your number on the day so please do arrive in plenty of time. The number should be securely fixed to the front of your vest. Do not fold, cut down or deface your number as this may lead to disqualification. Do not give your number to another
runner without informing the information desk, as it could result in confusion and disqualification.

CHANGING
There will be some changing facilities in the school classrooms. A few showers may be available but no guarantee. Toilets are in the main school building, but bear in mind this is a junior school so the facilities are designed for young children. Please respect the school and do not urinate in the school grounds

SECURE BAGGAGE AREA
A secure area is provided within the school for your kit. Please use the facility, as we cannot be responsible for items left in the changing rooms. Somebody will be on hand with the bags during the race but not at all times, so you still leave any baggage at your own risk.
