This year's race takes place on Sunday 11th Feb 2024.

To get to the race follow the signs from the Moon Pub in Mordiford. If using satnav, the postcode HR1 4QX or what3words lifelong.apes.commit will get you to Race HQ.
Entrance to the event parking area is opposite the Haugh Woods public car park.
Parking capacity this year is extremely tight, so please car share wherever possible.
The car parking area is some distance from the start, and so allow plenty of
time.
The race starts promptly at 11 am. It can be a 10/15 minute walk from the parking area to Race
HQ, then another 5 minute walk to the start/finish area
Please park single file as directed by the marshals along the forest tracks
Follow the arrows and signs and observe the one-way system.
Please note that after the race the forest gates will be locked at 2PM.
We will NOT send anything to you in advance. Your race timing chip and number, along with technical t-
shirt will all need to be collected on the day from the Race HQ, before the race starts.
Numbers will be distributed alphabetically according to surname, so please go to the appropriate table according to your
name.
Your timing chip is reusable, so will need to be returned when you cross the finish line. Please
collect your race chip and number at least 30 mins before the start time.
Toilets will be located at Race HQ.
There will be bag drop off but due to the remote location we cannot provide changing facilities - so
please come prepared for the weather. Bag’s are left at the owner's risk. The organisers cannot be held
responsible for any loss or damage.
It can rain, hail, snow or blow a gale, often at the same time so
please keep an eye on the forecast and come appropriately dressed. Grippy trail shoes are strongly
recommended!
Back by popular demand. Beck’s White will be doing a pre race warm up in the start/finish area at
10.40am.
The course will be clearly marked by arrows and marker tape and marshals will be positioned at regular
intervals to keep you on track and offer encouragement. Please note that due to restrictions put in place
by Forestry England, there will be some changes to the course for those who have run it previously.
There will be refreshments after the race back at Race HQ, followed by the prize giving presentations.
Water, Tea, coffee and doughuts.
For your safety, please be aware that much of the course is on rough, slippery or uneven ground with
exposed tree roots, loose stones and comprises the best part of 1000ft of elevation. There will be a
team of medics on site to deal with any incidents that may occur.
Although not banned outright under the UKA Rules of Athletics because this race takes place off-road,
we request that you do not wear headphones during the race. It is important to be able to hear
instructions/warnings from marshals and the race director, before and during the race.
Results will be published as soon as possible after the race on the Wye Valley Runners website,
Facebook group, Muddy Woody 6 Facebook group and on the Ready Set Go Timing website.
We are unable to give refunds or hold over your number till next year. We ask for your

manageable.

Most important. Enjoy your run and try to manage a smile when you cross the finish line!
