The Event HQ is within easy reach of :

Event HQ is also the halfway point so if you want to leave drinks then this can be done (please label clearly)

In order to make the route more off road the first 5-6 miles of the route has been changed to follow the Vanguard Way. This is a well sign posted route but will be marked in places to help you.

Route directions are being updated and will be available on the website shortly.   http://www.thecroydonultra.co.uk/

Paper copies of the route directions will be available on the day as well.
