About
Race Harborough was initially established in 2014, and then bought by myself, Mary Pearson, at the end of January 2023. My priorities for the company are to deliver quality, friendly, inclusive and enjoyable events in beautiful surroundings, at fair prices, and with a minimal impact to the environment.
Catering & aid stations
Water stations are provided on-course: the half marathon has hydration at miles 3 (Holcot), 6.5 (Walgrave), and 9.5 (Scaldwell); the 10k has a station at mile 3 (Holcot). Water is also available at the finish.
Pacers
Experienced pacers will lead runners at target times starting from 1hr 30min in 5‑minute increments through to 2hr 45min (1:30, 1:35, 1:40, 1:45, 1:50, 1:55, 2:00, 2:05, 2:10, 2:15, 2:20, 2:25, 2:30, 2:35, 2:40, 2:45). Pacers are assigned to maintain these target paces for each start wave to help runners achieve their goals.
