Dig Deep

3 DAYS TO GO! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

See you on the start line! 🏃‍♀️🤸‍♀️💃🏁

With 4 days to go, you should be best pals with your runners handbook by now🤝

However, we're just clarifying some popular questions that are being asked👇

1️⃣ Why is Ibuprofen banned?
Ibuprofen and other NSAIDs are banned. This is because when combined with exercise, they can cause kidney failure, hyponatermia, and stomach ulcers. Unless you can provide a doctors note or prescription, you must not bring them along. This is standard for most endurance events so please do not argue or test this❕

2️⃣ Can I wear earphones?
Whilst we recommend running without them so you can be present in nature, you are allowed to wear them. However, you must remove them at road crossings, at checkpoints, or if a marshall asks you to. Ignoring this will result in disqualification✋

3️⃣ Can I put a change of shoes in my drop bag?
No. Your half way drop bag must be approx. 30x30x10cm no bigger. This will fit spare nutrition and a change of tee or socks etc👕🧦

We don't think you'll have any further questions as it's all in your runners guide but if you do, drop them below ⬇️✨

Was a bit worried you'd show up to Dig Deep on Saturday morning and see me like this😕

But don't worry because got in touch to say that they could come along and fulfil all our coffee needs from bright and early ☕️🤩🤩🤩

Cola's Coffee will be around on race day from 6am for your morning caffeine fix. Open to runners, supporters, volunteers, passers-by, and beyond💥☕️

Mandatory Kit List REMINDER!!! ⚡️

If you’ve entered into any of the 3️⃣ Dig Deep Trail Races there’s a checklist of kit that you MUST carry…

Yes, you MUST carry this. We will not only be checking kit at registration, but we'll also be doing random kit checks at the finish line. If you're found to be missing something at the finish line, you will be disqualified, your time excluded from the results, and there will be further reprimands which may affect your ability to race any organised event in future.

❗️So, if you were thinking about ditching your kit after registration to save weight, think again. Don't be that person.

* the image above is the maximum kit list. Please check the Runner's Guide for information on what kit is mandatory for your race distance 📖

Do remember...

👉If you’re missing something, pick it up at and get 15% off sponsor brands* with proof of entry
