To help minimise congestion on the course, runners will be released from the start area in groups every 1 minute.
Your official result will be based on your chip time, which starts when you cross the start line.
There is no course cut-off for the 3km. Take your time and enjoy the course. Walking is absolutely welcome.
Important: If you are aiming for an overall top-three male or female position, you must start with the starting gun.
Overall podium positions are determined using gun time.
