What's Included
You are not just winning a race entry and a training plan. You are joining the full Base to Best coaching and team experience from 9 November through to race day.

Separate programme draw
As a Base to Best athlete, you will also be automatically entered into our separate programme draw to win a brand-new pair of supershoes before race day. The supershoes are not automatically part of the giveaway prize, but the giveaway winner becomes a Base to Best athlete, so they will also be entered into that draw alongside everyone already on the programme.
Proof
You are not just winning a race place. You are joining a team that delivered 11 PBs from 11 runners at Cambridge last year.

How To Enter
Story sharing is encouraged, but is not a condition of entry and does not increase the chance of winning.
