Second Sunday League fixture - Trent Park 1st December

Trent Park Running Club cordially invite you to the second Sunday League fixture of the 2019 - 2020 Season on Sunday 1st December starting at 10.30 am

Location: Trent Park Country Park, Cockfosters Entrance, EN4 0DZ

Time: 10.30am start

Course: 5 miles [8K] of rolling park and woodland, as in previous years

Surface: Grass and gravel paths. Trail shoes recommended

Facilities: Public toilets available near café and car park area

Kit: Unsupervised area around the start and finish

Travel: Parking is available within Trent Park but is limited. If you do intend to drive, please car-share as much as possible. There is NO parking available at Southgate Hockey Club in the Park. Please DO NOT attempt to park there. Car parking is available at the Cockfosters entrance to Trent Park, Cockfosters Road, London, EN4 0JZ

Given the proximity of Trent Park to Cockfosters and Oakwood underground stations, use of public transport is strongly recommended. Cockfosters tube station car park (EN4 ODZ) is only about 10 minutes walk from Trent Park, where there are 336 spaces and as Arsenal aren’t playing at home there should be plenty of spaces. Parking costs £3 on Sundays although I believe you have to pay using the PaybyPhone app - https://www.ncp.co.uk/find-a-car-park/car-parks/cockfosters-stn-tfl/ There are a further 145 spaces in the Oakwood tube car park (N14 4UT), costing £5 on Sundays.

The start (and finish) will be at the opposite end of the central footpath to the cafe and toilets (at the end where the Wildlife Sanctuary is).

Additional Notes:
• Please be aware that wearing headphones or other impediments to hearing is no longer permitted. Runners will be disqualified.

• Please be mindful that this is a public park and we therefore share it with many other users.

• First aid will be present. Please report any issues to the nearest marshal who will assist

• Running is an intense physical exercise. Please do not run if you feel unwell or have any injuries.
