If you want to enter a course you are not eligible for (that is you are 'running down', not 'running up') please use the "Course n Out of class" category (CnO). For example an M21 on any course except Open (Course 1).
Please note that the event centre has moved out of Stoke Park to the Spectrum side of the road, at W3W ///rates.panels.hang.

Travel to the event
There are 2 railway stations in Guildford. The event centre is near to W3W ///rates.panels.hang about a 1.5 mile walk from the mainline station and 0.5 miles from the smaller London Road station.
Car Parking (there is no organised parking)
The Park and Ride car park by the Spectrum Leisure Centre is the most convenient place to leave your car (free). On Sundays there is quite a lot of free parking on the streets of Guildford near Stoke Park which is where the event centre is. Guildford College also has a parking area open (free) to the public on Sundays (off the mini roundabout where Recreation Road meets Stoke Road).
Nor are there organised toilets
There are public toilets in Stoke Park Gardens at W3W ///turns.straw.door (and the Spectrum Leisure Centre has toilets for its users).
Junior Courses
For the Women/Men's Junior course 6 (M/W16-) it has been necessary to use two areas with some dead running between them, which is why the course is longer than usual. The course also has a timed-out road crossing. Some of the course crosses roads in a housing estate, traffic is generally slow-moving and not busy.
10/06/25 NOTE: Travellers have moved onto Stoke Park therefore we have closed course 7 and Young Juniors class now use course 6.
Please contact the organiser if you have concerns about traffic.
Start and Finish
There is a 1 km walk to the Start and about the same back from the Finish.
