What's a Prediction Run?

 

We can't tell you the distance or the route. We can tell you it will be somewhere between 5k and 8k. On run morning, the distance will be posted and announced. When you arrive, you will submit your guess as to your expected finish time.

 

Simple.

 

There are no outside indicators of pace allowed. That means NO WATCHES, HRM, GPS OR MP3 PLAYERS. You will have to rely on your own sense of pace.

 

We will even do a neighbourly wrist check a few minutes before the actual start, just to make sure everyone is being honest.

 

Speed is not relevant which means you have as good a chance as anyone to win. All you need is self knowledge and a bit of luck is.

 

Results will be posted after the awards ceremony
