Race Start and Waves

The best and safest way to start the race is to have 3 x mixed waves based on the fastest first. That means there is no separate start for the 10km and 5km. The Fastest people in 10km and 5km will start together for Wave 1. Followed by next fastest for 10km and 5km etc.

Below are the mixed wave times comprising of both 5km and 10km runners together in each:

Wave 1 – complete the 10km in under 50mins.  Complete the 5km in under 25minutes

Wave 2 – complete the 10km in 50 – 60mins. Complete the 5km in under 25 – 30minutes

Wave 3 – complete the 10km in under 55 – 60mins. Complete the 5km in under 30 – 40minutes

Find the sign for the Wave that reflects your predicted finish time. Decide now what wave you will be in and stick to it. Each wave will go 30 seconds apart. So be ready.

Note: there is no disadvantage to starting in the 2nd or 3rd Wave. Your number is chipped and your chip time starts once you cross the Start line.
