Will here be medical cover?

Created by Charlie Williamson, Modified on Wed, 8 Oct at 2:37 PM by Charlie Williamson


The safety of our competitors is paramount. Onsite during the event there will be a specialist company set up to supply the highest calibre of comprehensive medical cover to sporting events such as this. There will be a team of specialist medical practitioners and support vehicles around the course that will be able to travel to any incident and can transfer directly to hospital should the need arise. If before, during or after the event you feel that you require any type of medical care, please do not hesitate to contact an event marshal. Please note that if your require medical help you will need to stay in one place, if you decide to continue moving we will not be able to assist. 


Please make sure that you have detailed any medical issues in your entry form. This will make sure that we have the details needed to ensure the medical team can care for you correctly and also allow us to cater for any special needs you may have. 


Please write next of kin and contact details on the back of your race number using a waterproof pen. If you have any type of medical condition or are taking any type of medication please write a large ‘MC’ on the bottom left of your race number (front). Please write your medical condition fully on the back of your number. This will only be used in the event of you being involved in an incident. 


There is also a public first aid unit in the Event Village, accessible from beside the stage.
