Supporters |
You are VERY welcome at the start and finish points of each day and most of the check points are ok, although some are more suitable for supporters than others, with good parking and other facilities.
Please avoid the 1st check point on day 1 as there is no parking at all.
Aside from the check points, there are many other great vantage points along the coast and we've added a few to the tables below, highlighted in green.
Bring your bells, whistles and hooters to encourage the runners on their merry way. While our runners will undoubtedly be hurting underneath their determined faces, your support is sure to help them not only run from check point to check point but also to cross the long awaited finish line!
Please find the following useful information to help you decide on where best to find the runners:
