Entry Confirmation

Each competitor will receive a confirmation of entry by email. Please ensure you provide a personal email address for each competitor.

Force Colours and Race Numbers

Though this is an open race 'Force Colours' must be worn. It is hoped that PSUK runners will be identified with a number sequence. This coupled with wearing 'force colours' will allow police runners a chance to identify other police runners.
