Entries are now closed as we have reached our limit of 400 runners. If you are unable to run you can transfer your entry to someone else of the same sex provided you follow the process explained in the instructions to competitors. Your substitute will need to fill in and sign an entry form.
The race will be starting this year at an earlier time of 9.30 on Sunday 14 March which is Mothering Sunday. So why not bring Mum along (or if you are Mum bring the kids along) and also enjoy the beautiful gardens together after the race. Your race entry fee will include free entry to the gardens for competitors.
There's free parking, good loos and excellent refreshments at Mr Eddy's tea room and restaurant. We regret that the course is unsuitable for wheelchair entrants. Next year we plan also to include a one mile fun run wholly within the gardens but we regret that it has not been possible to do that this year.
Here are
We have a limited number of Exbury Gardens 10k fluorescent hats for sale at just £5 each. Also flourescent technical running Tee shirts at £8 in small, medium, large and extra large. They are great if you are marshalling at any race or want to avoid being hit by cars while running on roads. Just click on the pictures to see bigger ones. Aren't they wonderful and as this is a limited edition they will probably be a better hedge against inflation than keeping the money in the bank. What is more you get a reduction to £11 for the pair if you buy both. They will be on sale at the information tent at Exbury on raceday but pre-orders are accepted, for collection on the day, as there are only a limited number available. If you'd like one please contact us.
If you need to contact us please click here.
Official pictures will be available from See Me in Action so please say cheese when you pass the photographer and make sure your number is visible. If we manage to take any ourselves we'll publish them here after the race.

Results and background information about the 2009 race are published here. We expect the 2010 race to be broadly similar to the successful format for 2009 so the 2009 information will give you an idea of what to expect.
