All the events are non competitive so every child will be a winner.
We still record an overall time for each participant and list them alphabetically so, if they wish, they can compare times after the event.
The distances and number of laps are indicated below. SC = Short Course LC = Long Course
What does safe environment mean?
The whole race takes place within the confined space of the event arena, meaning the children are on site at all times. They do not cycle on the roads or run outside of the venue, both the cycle and run courses are on grass (with the exception of York which uses the cycle track & velodrome) and are multi lapped so you can watch your child at all times.
