WALKERS INFORMATION

Two marked walks are available; the 13.1 mile half-marathon distance, which largely follows the route that the runners will take in the afternoon, and a shorter 5 mile walk more suitable for families and younger walkers who may wish to take a gentle stroll with picnic.

Both routes include tracks, public roads and footpaths around Otmoor. Maps of the courses are available at the Start, and water and first aid are available around the long course.

The walks start and finish on the playing field at the Millennium Hall in Horton cum Studley (OX33 1AD), where free parking is available and the village fete provides refreshments, a licensed bar, entertainments and stalls. Toilets are available in the Millennium Hall.

A commemorative badge is awarded to walkers finishing before 4:00pm.

Registration and first starts for walkers are from 8:30am, with last starts at 11:30am. Check-in for finishers will close at 4:00pm

ENTRY FEES
Entry fees for walkers (for both courses) are:

  • Adults and children over 13 = £7
  • Children 6-12 = £3
  • Children 5 and under = Free
All walkers must pay an entry fee on the day.

DOGS
Dogs are welcome, but must be kept under control at all times. Owners are responsible for picking up and disposing of dog mess in appropriate bins.

SPONSORSHIP
The Otmoor Challenge Association encourages walkers to gain sponsorship for their favourite charities. However, the Association does not organise sponsorship on behalf of walkers, nor accepts sponsorship in lieu of the appropriate entry fee. Walkers should collect their own sponsorship funds and pass them directly to the charity concerned.
