Support for you
Whether you’re a first-time runner or a seasoned pro, we’ll be here to help. As a part of our team, you’ll get:
- Support and guidance from a dedicated member of our team all the way to race day
- A personalised running vest
- Invitation to our exclusive Strava running club where you can chat with other #TeamRetinaUK runners and share training tips.
Guide runners
Any participant who needs a guide can request a free place for their support runner from the event organisers. The event organisers will need to know the reason that support is required and may ask for written documentation from a medical professional to confirm this. Your guide will receive a finisher’s medal and t-shirt (as well as a Retina UK running vest). If you have any questions about this, please do get in touch with our team.
