The race is full, is there a waiting list?
Sorry, no there isn't :-(
The race is full, how do I get a place?
If you know someone who can't run then they can transfer their place to you. If you don't know anyone to transfer to then please post on our facebook page to see if anyone has a place. All transfers need to be completed by the Sunday before the race.
I can't run any more, can I offer my place to someone else?
If you know someone who wants to run then:
Go to http://www.nhrrraceentry.org.uk/
Choose transfer/change entry...
Enter your surname, dob and postcode and choose "transfer to another runner"
Fill in the details needed
An email is then sent to the new runner which contains a link to confirm the transfer.
Once the new runner gets the email, click on the link and confirm the transfer.
If at any point you have a problem then please email info@standalone10k.org.uk

I can't find my name in the entry list but I have a paypal receipt?
Please forward your paypal receipt to info@standalone10k.org.uk and we'll add you to the entry list. We find that occasionally entries don't complete (and please accept our apologies if this has happened to you)
Can I run wearing headphones?
Sorry, no. Under the terms of our race license anyone wearing headphones during the race will be disqualified. For your own safety and for those around you, you need to be able to hear what's going on, especially if a marshal is trying to communicate with you.
Can I run with a dog?
Sorry, no dogs.
Can I run with a running buggy?
Sorry but for safety reasons we can't allow running buggies.
Are wheelchairs allowed?
We are really sorry but the course isn't suitable for wheelchair athletes.

Where do I park on the day?
There are two car parks, both entrances are on Stotfold Road. Please use the following postcode to navigate to the car parks on race day: SG6 4JS
- The main car park (the same as last year) is for those that are intending on staying to either take part or to spectate. You will not be able to leave this car park during the race. Due to the narrow entrance to this car park please do not use this car park for drop offs.
- The second car park is at the Two Chimneys pub. Please use this car park if you are being dropped off, if you need to exit during the event or if you are arriving during the race.
- We will have signs on the main routes through Letchworth directing you to the parking - please follow these
- To minimize the impact on local residents, please don’t park on the roads around the farm
