- If I double book myself, can I cancel my entry and get a refund? No, there will be no refunds once you are entered in the race. In exceptional circumstances we will be able to give a referral to the 2007 race... so check those diaries!
- Is there a pre-race warm up? There will be a collective warm-up at 9:20am, where you will be led through a series of mobility and stretch exercises.
- Will there be a sweeper bus? The sweeper bus follows at the back of the race. Between miles 1 and 3 it travels at 15 minute miling pace and thereafter at 12 minutes per mile. Anyone overtaken reverts to a pedestrian. We cannot guarantee marshals and road closures to still be in place, so please proceed with caution.
- Is there anywhere available for camping? Unofficially, there is limited camping available. The area is just under the size of a football pitch, so it's first come, first served. There is also Nottingham Holme Pierrepont Camping & Caravan Park (0115 9824721), a large well equipped site a few minutes from the race site.
