0630hrs - Sign-in opens for 60km and 40km walkers at Goodwood (Horse) Racecourse, near Chichester, follow the JUST WALK signs. Breakfast will be served along with tea and coffee giving you a bit of extra energy for the start of the day! You will need to be signed in by
0740hrs - Please do come prepared for the walk with the necessary kit for all weathers! Read on for full kit lists. There is free parking at the racecourse* and this will be signposted for you on the day.
0740hrs - Sign-in closes. All walkers will need to gather for the JUST WALK opening ceremony (with the infamous ATD warm-up!) and then the 60km and the 40km routes start together. Please allow yourself plenty of time to get to the venue, sign-in and have your breakfast so you are ready to gather at 0745hrs.
0800hrs - JUST WALK 60km and 40km routes start.
1800hrs - Big cheers all round as the first expected 60km walkers return back to the racecourse for a huge congratulation, refreshments and their well deserved JUST WALKED t-shirts.
Sunday 16th May 2010
0100hrs - Although there is no time limit for either walk, this is the time that we expect the final walkers to cross the line after 60km of endurance walking. To walk this distance is undoubtedly a huge achievement.
Walkers will be returning from the 60km route throughout the evening and into the night. These walkers will have put in a huge effort and will need a massive amount of encouragement and support as they cross the line, so we welcome all who wish to stay and support the walkers over the finish line.
Why not get your family and friends to come and meet you and cheer you over the finish line? They can also then drive you home as we recommend that you don’t drive a long distance after completing this challenge.
Testimonials
Acer Nethercott, part of Team GB's rowing team, who started off the 10km and 20km walkers said " Just Walk is a wonderful event. It's fabulous to see so many people out in the open air raising funds for their chosen charity. I may well come along and take part next year!
A friend and I did the 60km Just Walk challenge on Saturday at Goodwood. We would both just like to say a massive thank you to everyone from your company that was involved. We had a lovely (but tiring) day. We were really impressed with how well it was all organised and how helpful all the staff were. This is the first time we have done something through your company but one of many challenges we have done, but in future we will definitely keep an eye out for other challenges on your website. Many thanks again.
