INFORMATION
REFRESHMENT STATIONS
There will be seven well-stocked refreshment stations positioned along the route of the Half Marathon , and 17 refreshment stations on the Ultra Marathon route to ensure that your hydration needs are adequately catered for . Water , Coke , and Powerade will be provided in 175ml paper cups , and take note that water will be in white cups , Coke will be in red Coca-Cola branded cups , Coke No Sugar in black and red Coca-Cola No Sugar cups , and Powerade in black and blue branded cups .
You should drink approximately 100ml of fluid when thirsty . It may therefore not be necessary to drink at every station , as the dangers of being over-hydrated can be as severe as that of dehydration . Modify your fluid intake to suit weather conditions on the day , and do not experiment with new drinks on race day .
Where possible , the stations will be manned from both sides of the road , but the stations are well spread out to ensure that everyone is catered for . Also , toilet facilities will be provided at every refreshment station , usually just past the station . Please use the toilets provided – do not use private gardens or public areas . The full list of Half Marathon and Ultra Marathon refreshment stations is on page 62 .

ROUTE
Please see page 58 for the Ultra Marathon route map , and page 60 for the Half Marathon route map .
