It is, however you need to create a separate ’My Details’ account for each runner and use a separate password for each entrant.

Standard online entries will close on the Thursday night 9-10 days before the event takes place or when the course capacity is reached, whichever is earliest. Late online entries are available up until 10am on the day of the race if the course capacity has not already been reached. You can also enter on the day of the race at the Event Number Station.

What you need to do is create a My Details account for your child and enter them in the same way that you would enter yourself. If you wish to use your email address, you can do, however you would need to make sure that the password is different to your own account.

If you have two children, you will need to use your email address BUT use different passwords when you create each individual account. 

If you are having trouble logging into one account it maybe that you need to reset the passwords for each individual accounts.

Any age of entrant is allowed so long as the individual is healthy enough to do so. Children under the age of 16 must be supervised at the event by a parent or guardian but the parent or guardian does not have to take part in the run itself. Therefore, children are allowed to run in the event unaccompanied provided the individual supervising them is happy for them to do so.

Your Event Information Pack will be available from within your My Details account at least 10 days prior to the event.

No. We do not allow runners to transfer between races for the health and safety of all our participants. Supplies are allocated per race, if we allow runners to move between races then one race would have over supply in one race and the under supply in another race.

Please click here for more information on transfers and withdrawals.

It may be the case that you have duplicate accounts on the system, and that one of the accounts has an incomplete entry. It may also be the case that you have used the same email address to register another runer who has an incomplete entry. As long as you log in to your account and can see that your entry is approved, then you know that you have an approved entry for the event.

The most likely reason is that you have multiple accounts setup with us with different passwords and you are logging into one of your accounts without an entry. Please contact us via the form below to recify this issue.

To withdraw your entry, please login to your My Details account and select 'withdraw' from the options listed underneath your entry.

Otherwise the system will not know who to assign the additional medal insert(s) to. You can do this by visiting the online shop whilst logged in as your group member.

You do not need to contact your charity with questions about the event, e.g. start time, transport options or to find out when you will receive your event number.

Unfortunately you can’t guarantee it and we can’t move you into the same start pen however if you select a specific time as your predicted finish time, there is a higher chance of being in the same pen than if you select a more commonly selected finish time, such as 30 minutes, or 1 hour.

All predicted times will be locked before the event date and therefore any updates must be completed in advance of this date.

There are no water stations on the course, but you'll be given a bottle of water once you cross the Finish Line! 

Our lovely helpers at the Event Number Station can store a limited number of bags, but please be advised you leave your items at your own risk. We can accept rucksacks, sports bags or a bag of similar size. We cannot accept suitcases or very large bags. Alternatively you can leave your baggage with family or friends.

In case of poor weather, please line your bag with a plastic bag to keep the contents dry.

We recommend using Strava Beacon software, the market leader in live tracking, to share your live location with your friends and family.

Strava Beacon allows runners to share their real-time location with anyone they want. When Beacon is activated, users can go into the Strava app and select three contacts they want to send a notification text to with their location. The contacts can be anyone in their smartphone, so you’re not limited to just Strava user friends. Once selected, a text message will form with a link to a real-time map of your location. The link leads to a page on Strava’s website where the people you sent the link to can see where you are as you move throughout your run.

The link will always open in a browser, so your recipients don’t need to have the Strava app—or even be a Strava user—to see your location. The link also isn’t limited to the three contacts you choose within the Strava Beacon feature. You can copy and paste the link anywhere you want.

To find out more, click here.

Runners are not permitted to move forwards into faster start pens but runners will not be prevented from moving back and starting in a timing pen further back from the start line. We do however strongly encourage all runners to start in their allocated start pen as each runner has been individually allocated based upon their predicted time and the number of runners allocated to each start pen has been capped to ensure enough space for all runners in the start area.

If you would like to be part of the Event Team who deliver the event, please go to www.eventteam.gsi-events.com to register your interest and one of our team will get in touch with you to see which role would suit you.

We are delighted to be making some real headway in this area by removing plastics from our finisher's packs which are either reusables or recyclable. The packaging on all finisher t-shirt products are compostable and can be added to your food waste recycling.

Although all the bottles that are used at our events are separated and recycled, we know that eliminating the need for any plastic needs to be our Plan A. Correct levels of hydration for participants is something which is seriously considered for the safe running of the event and the health of the participants. Other factors such as the logistics of packaging and moving water for thousands of participants where there can be no risk of contamination is of equal importance hence why we need to carefully consider the options​ for both on course and in our finish areas.​

As such, we have been working with a company who specialises in bespoke, compostable solutions to investigate and test a number of compostable alternatives to plastic that will achieve our dual objective of ensuring clean and adequate volumes of water to our participants in a 100% environmentally way. We believe that we will have this solution in place for summer 2019, however we stress that with something as important as participant’s hydration during the events, it is vital that we have a safe and appropriate solution and will only make changes when we can guarantee this.​

We want to offer our assurances that this is at the top of our agenda for development and we very much look forward to being able to offer these options to our participants​​​​ in the very near future.​

You can find full information on Start and Finish locations on the event page on the website. 

Yes. However, we do encourage runners to drop their bags at the baggage truck, or hand them out to friends or family as much as possible.

If for medical reasons, you need to keep your backpack on the course, you may be asked to have your bag searched by security. Please take this time into account and arrive early enough.

No, this event isn't broadcast on the television.

No, we do not keep medals or t-shirts from previous years.

The runner's first name only appears on the event number.

Please present your confirmation email, either printed off or on a mobile device, as well as some form of ID.

No once the event is closed it is not possible to order a medal insert.

The event will continue unless we expect weather conditions that mean it would be unsafe for the participants to do so.  In the event of a cancellation, we will communicate directly with all participants via email or by text message.

Please plan for the forecast weather appropriately by making sure that you have a change of clothes packed and your bag lined with a waterproof liner to protect them so that you have something to change into after finishing when wind and rain is expected.  Similarly, if warm weather is forecast, suncream should be worn and a running cap considered to keep the sun off.

Please keep an eye on the social media communications on the run up to the event for further guidance.

We are disappointed to announce that we are postponing the 2020 Big Fun Run series.  Amidst the ongoing concerns in regard to the spread of the coronavirus and the impact this is expected to have in the UK in the weeks and months to come, we understand the requirement by the UK Government to ban mass gatherings in the interests of supporting our frontline services and public health. 

We are saddened to have to make this decision but we believe that this course of action is in the best interests of our participants, our affiliate charities, the event team who deliver the event and the emergency services who support the event.

We are continuing to work closely with local authorities and our other delivery partners over the coming weeks to secure and communicate a new date for the event.  Due to park availability and the demand of rescheduling of other major events at this time, we anticipate that the event will now take place in summer 2021. Your entry will be automatically updated to the new date and we will confirm to you as soon as possible with what the new date will be.

For now, we encourage everyone to look after yourselves and those around you where you can, and continue following the advice given by the World Health Organisation to prevent the wider spread of the virus.

Sorry no, medals and finishers goodybags are a mark of achievement of finishing the event so it would not be fair to those that completed the full distance.

"Please use the contact form below to let us know, select the 'event information’ option. In your message please provide:

Each medal insert is individually engraved with your name and time. It usually takes 4-6 weeks post-event to receive your medal insert in the post. Medal Inserts dispatched to Overseas participants can take significantly longer.

You will still receive your medal on the day of the event! 

Your information is sent to our engraver approx 1 week after the event.  Your medal insert will be posted to the address that is showing in your 'My Details' account at this time. 

For some events there will be a high volume of lost property which have been handed in or found.  If we have found some property which is identifable to you we will contact you to arrange this being returned to you. If your item doesn't have your personal details on it, you can use the contact form on the website to give us a description of what you have lost and we will search through our lost property to check if it has been found and arrange the return to you.

Big Fun Run is a series of 5k untimed runs staged within scenic settings throughout the UK from July to October. The Big Fun Run series is strictly for FUN where it’s all about relaxed exercise. No times, no pressure, no sweat – just some easy moves and lots of laughs. The runs are suitable for all the family where you can accomplish your personal goals; whether you are raising money for a worthwhile cause close to your heart, remembering a loved one or simply keeping active. This isn’t about Olympic level athletes charging about in record times, it’s about mums with prams, dads with toddlers, groups running together, fancy dress and a fantastic fun mix.

No, you have to participate in the event in order to receive these.

This depends on whether you are running on your own standard place OR a charity place, there are two options. Option One – Purchase Your Own Place: You would set up your Just Giving page and choose to raise funds for two charities as you wish. Option Two – Charity Place: If you choose a charity place you can only enter and raise funds for one charity, the charity purchases and pays for your place and it is not possible for this to be split between two charities.

Although lots of participants take part and raise money for hundreds of different charities, you can choose to take part yourself without being linked to a charity.

If you applied for a charity entry and you have received notification that your application has been declined, there are 2 main reasons this may have happened.

1. The charity you wish to run for must review and approve your application within a set timeframe or your application will expire. Please contact your chosen charity directly to discuss this with them if you think this may have happened.

2. Your chosen charity may have chosen to decline your application on this occasion. This may be for a number of reasons and factors. Contact your chosen charity directly to discuss this with them or consider applying for a charity entry with another charity.

You need to inform your Charity directly and get them to withdraw your entry. As long as standard/late entries remain open, you can then purchase an entry directly and still raise funds for the Charity directly. You can still link your entry to your chosen Charity during the entry process.

You can do this either way but if you do it via our Website, your page will then be linked to both our Event and your 'My Details' Account.

No - you need to make sure you enter the Event via our Website and you will only be entered if you receive a 'confirmation' email to tell you, you are an 'approved' entry. If in doubt, please contact your Charity directly to get clarification.

Not every Charity offers this, contact your Charity directly using the Charity information page from within the Event Website, found under the 'Run For Charity' section.

If the Charity you are raising funds for is not an Affiliate Charity of the Event, that is all absolutely fine. However, you will not be able to link your chosen Charity to your 'My Details' Account and you will need to set up your Just Giving page from within the JG Site directly.

Your chosen charity should contact you directly in due course to organise this but if you are concerned please contact your charity to discuss. You can find contact details for your charity via their "Affiliate Charity" page on this website.

If you enter via a Charity Entry this means the Charity have approved you to run for them, meaning you do not have to pay for your entry but you need to raise a minimum amount of sponsorship for the Charity. Therefore you do NOT also have to pay for your own entry. You will need to have received a Charity approved confirmation of entry email from us to ensure you have a Charity Entry. 

As you can appreciate we work with over 366 Affiliate Charity so cannot be seen to be donating towards any Charity specifically with regards to contributing to Entry Fees.

This is the amount of money the Charity you have chosen to run for, will expect you to fundraise in return for them giving you a 'free' entry to the race.

This is how much money you think you will be able to raise for a Charity if you are entering via a Standard Entry and choosing to fundraise for them. This is to give the Charity a rough indication of how much money you may raise.

You visit your 'My Details' account and unlink the Charity you have chosen initially. You can then choose to link a different Charity from the Affiliate Charity list.

Please contact your chosen charity directly to discuss this with them. Contact details can be found on their charity page on our website.

You need to contact your Charity directly in order for them to 'withdraw' your entry. You will then be free to apply to run for another Charity.

Yes - you can sign up separately and then create a joint fundraising page on the fundrasing platform of your choice e.g. JustGiving or speak to your chosen charity. 

You are more than welcome to fundraise for a personal cause rather than a charity. You should simply enter the event via the Standard Entry method.

No you will not be refunded your entry fee (please see our t's and c's), the best option here is to keep your own standard entry and fundraise for the charity directly by linking your entry to the charity within your My Details account.

You need to Contact the Charity you have your Charity Entry with, they need to withdraw you, once you are withdrawn you no longer have an approved entry. The only way you can get another Charity Entry is to reapply for a Charity Entry to the new Charity of your choice

Please contact your Charity as soon as possible to discuss this with them directly as they will need to withdraw your entry on your behalf. Please note that you cannot defer your entry to the following year; you would simply need to begin the entry process from scratch when entries for the next year open. Your charity will incur a fee for the withdrawal of your Charity Entry so please do think carefully before entering the event.

Your Event Information Pack will be available from within your My Details account 10 days prior to the event. We will let you know by email when your Event Information Pack is available within your My Details account.

Your Event Information Pack is a document that we, as the event organiser, produce to tell you everything you need to know about the event and is tailored to the specific race distance you are participating in. You do not need to contact your charity with questions about the event, e.g. start time, transport options or to find out when you will receive your event number.

If you have pledged to fundraise for another charity in error you can amend your choice by logging into your My Details account and clicking the "Unlink entry from Charity" link next to your entry. Refresh the page and then you will see a new link appear "Click here to pledge to fundraise for an Affiliate Charity". You can then select your intended chosen charity from the drop down list.

While you reserve the right to withdraw your fundraising pledge going forward, please be advised that the charity you selected in error may have already incurred expense in providing you with a fundraising pack/charity running top etc. We would therefore ask that you carefully consider the implications of withdrawing your fundraising pledge before doing so. If you wish to discuss this with the charity you have selected in error before taking action, please contact them directly via their Affiliate Charity page on this website.

No this is done via your chosen Charity.

You will need to contact the Charity directly, you will find the contact details within the event website under the Charities section.

If you are under the age of 16 you must run with a parent or guardian. 

Yes so you can be with your friend if they are also entered.
