Hi there. Where would be best to park on the day? Never done this one before.
Hi Craig,
The map above with has all the suitable parking sports for the Bradford 10K.
Unfortuantely, it is hard to determine which one might be best on the day.
Thanks,
Rich - Epilepsy Action
Hi
I am running in the race and would like to drive, but am struggling to get a view of the road closures.
Is this information available ?
Thanks,
Adam.
Hi Adam. Thanks for getting in touch. We’ve passed this onto our events team and they’ll be in touch with you shortly.
Can you sign up for this race in the day?
Hi James,
No, unfortunately not. We are almost out of places, so if you're looking to sign up - do it quick!
Cheers,
Rich - Epilepsy Action
Hi
I don't seem to have got my race pack can you let me know what to do?
Thanks Rob
Lovely day even though a bit rainy. Have you thought about engaging with Bradford upper schools and getting more of the city's young people engaging with the race? You could offer some free entries and ask the young people to fundraise for Epilepsy Action. Just an idea.
Hi Sarah, thank you for getting in touch. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the event. Thank you for your suggestion regarding engaging schools in Bradford. We’ll certainly add it in to our discussions when planning for 2018. If you do have any other feedback you can contact the events team directly on events@epilepsy.org.uk.

Hi Szilvia, thank you for your great comments about the event. We’re delighted you enjoyed it. Well done!
I completed the Bradford 10k today. However, I was wondering whether you could explain why the event was advertised with a lower case 'b' for 'Bradford'.
Thank you for getting in touch. I hope you enjoyed taking part yesterday. The lower case ‘b’ in the event name is purely a stylistic decision based on the charity’s branding. We only use this style in logos and main headings. If you have any other queries about the event you can contact the events team directly on events@epilepsy.org.uk
Hi. Just checking, does the race start at 9am? What time is best to arrive?
Hi Kate, the race starts at 9am and the aerobic warm up is at 8.40am. Please be aware that the affected roads will be closed to traffic at 8.15am so please bear this in mind when planning your route. If you have any other questions, please contact the events team at events@epilepsy.org.uk or call 0113 210 8800.
Hi, am I able to use headphones during this race?
Thanks
For safety reasons it is not permitted to wear in ear or over ear headphones while taking part. In line with UK Athletics advice, bone conducting headphones are permitted.
Are there any plans to postpone if,as per current forecast, it snows all night Saturday and into Sunday?
Thank you for getting in touch.
We are monitoring the forecasts closely at the moment. Based on the current forecasts we are planning for the event to go ahead as planned.
If this changes at any point, we will let you know at the earliest opportunity.
No one can control the weather but thank you for the prompt action and the 3 choices for runners clear and early information is all we can ask and you can do so thank you for the great work see you on 29th April

A very well-organised event. Thanks to all the encouraging marshalls, great
