The Mount Ephraim 10K

Your entry to the race will also secure you free family admission to Mount Ephraim Gardens, the beautiful country estate that has been owned by the Dawes family for over 300 years.

Visitors to the Edwardian Gardens will enjoy a captivating experience with breathtaking views of the Kent countryside.

This accurately-measured course starts within the grounds of Mount Ephraim Gardens and follows the quiet country lanes surrounding the estate.

Runners start and finish at Mount Ephraim Gardens and run a loop in a clockwise direction towards Herne Hill, turning left to Kelmsdale Wood, then right to Fostall and up Butlers Hill to Dargate. Runners then turn right onto Dargate Road and bear right onto Courtenay Road to head back towards Mount Ephraim Gardens along Dawes Road and Staplestreet Road.

Let's Do This always recommend that you arrive at least 45 mins before your start time so that you have enough time to both register and prep for the race start.

Facilities:

First Aid:

St John Ambulance or an alternative medical provider will be in attendance on the day and the course will be marshalled to provide assistance. There will also be a sweep marshal following the race to ensure that nobody is left behind and that all runners are accounted for.

Results:

Your individual time and position will be recorded by your electronic chip. We will endeavour to display results as they come into the race centre. Results will be uploaded to www.nice-work.org.uk as soon as possible after the race. All entrants that have supplied a valid and legible email address will receive a copy of the results as soon as possible after the race.

If you would like to volunteer to help at any of our events, there are a variety of roles available from marshalling to helping with event set-up. We offer our volunteers a free entry to a future race and, in some cases, expenses are available. If interested, please contact: [email protected]

How do I attach my timing chip?

Your timing chip is incorporated into your race number and should not be removed. Please place the race number on the front of your vest/shirt and not on your leg or back.

How do I attach my race number?

Please attach your race number to the front of your running top or vest using safety pins or clips, securing it on all four corners. Please don’t attach your number to the back of your shirt as it is difficult for our timekeepers and marshals to identify you.
