Short Course – approx. 2km

There will be a first aid and a qualified first aider available at registration. Registration is also a safe place for lost children to wait.

Please do not come to the event if you are unwell.

Please bring and carry any medication you might need, especially inhalers and EpiPen’s.

If you come across an injured or ill person, please stop, help and get further help. There will likely be qualified first aiders on the course who can stop to provide support.

All participants must return to download, whether they complete the course or not. This is to account for all competitors, ensuring everyone’s safe return.

Courses will close and controls collected in at 8.30 pm sharp. If you are still out on the course at this time return to finish and download immediately.

A waterproof jacket may also be mandatory if the organisers decide the weather requires one, so bring one along just in case.

Dogs are permitted in the carpark and on the course, however common sense control of dogs applies.

Allow about 5-10 minutes to get to registration/start.

Enter Antrim Castle Gardens by crossing at the pedestrian crossing at the junction between the Dublin Road and Castle Way. Children should be escorted by parents.

Follow the signage/tape to the registration/start/finish. Please keep to this route to avoid out of bounds.
