The colour of the bib you receive in either the post or at Pack Collection will relate to your allocated start time. Start times are assigned based on the predicted time you provided during registration and correspond to the colour on your numbered bib.
The process is simple: you will need to arrive at our Start Access Point at Chester Road at the appropriate time and be ready and raring to go.
It is no longer possible to update your predicted time and if you'd like to change waves. If you miss your arrival time, you will still be able to start with a later wave but please do everything possible to arrive at your allocated time. It isn't possible to move forward into an earlier wave.
