10K 2012
Registration and collecting your race pack
To clarify, you have 2 options. If it is convenient for you, then you can collect your registration pack from the Up & Running store Milton Keynes before Sunday. However, if you prefer. You can collect your registration pack on race day morning between 9-10am. Race HQ is now located at LA Fitness, Brickhill Street, Milton Keynes MK15 0DS.
We at RTS Events (as fellow athletes), want to make every effort to ensure that race day runs as smoothly as possible. We decided that given the strain that the postal service experiences at this time of year and the added pressure of local flooding, this is the most reliable option of uniting you with your pack in time for your race.
As you are probably aware, there has been substantial flooding in the area recently, so we have had to utilise our 'Back Up route'. The route will start at LA Fitness, Brickhill Street, Milton Keynes MK15 0DS located by Willen lake. LA fitness have parking facilities charged at 80p/hour, so you will need change.
Chip timing - Race Timing Systems
Your pack contains your timing chip. It is vital that you read the information below in order to fix your chip correctly to your shoe.
Please find below the Chip Instructions for The Up & Running 10K 2012
Please make sure you chip forms one large loop. Do not crush it, tuck it into your laces, or flatten it in any way. Make sure its one large loop.

Just one 10K not enough for you?? Why not join us for our next event on January 13th. Kick start those new year resolutions with us!! Look out in the next week for the launch of our brand new website RTSEvents.com where you can register.
May I take this opportunity on behalf of the entire RTS team, to wish you every success with your race and we look forward to seeing you at the finish line.

Due to recent flooding, we have revised our route. Our new Race day HQ will be located within LA fitness.
