Bag Check
A clearly-signed Bag check will be available at the small, upper picnic shelter. This will be clearly signed. Please bring your own small bag (no large items e.g. bikes, suitcases etc.) with anything you may need for after the race. Please clearly label your bag with your full name and bib number.
We will always have volunteers at the shelter managing your baggage, however we can’t be responsible for any loss or damage of items, and you leave your items at your own risk.
Post-race massage
New for this year, we are offering a post-race massage (by donation) performed by Launch Rehab with proceeds going to KidSport New West
How to get here
Queen’s park is a busy park! On the day of this event the arena will still be functioning and there are other events happening throughout the park. Therefore, parking may be limited so please plan accordingly.
Walk
If you live in the area, we encourage walking to the event! This is the most environmentally friendly way to get to the park and a great way to warm up before the race start.
