Parking at the Nunnery.

There is limited parking on site. With parking at the side of the road there could be space for about 100 cars. As such, if competitors and spectators want an assured parking space why not park in Pulrose Power Station Car Park right by the bridge and power station. Walk to Middle River Industrial estate road opposite the Power Station (the road to the Civic Amenity and Recycling centre). There is a foot path on the left before you get to Edmundson Electrical and next to the MEA works that are opposite the power station. Take this path between the high metal fences bear left and follow until you get to the nunnery estate. This is about a 10 to 12 minute walk and brings you out near to the race HQ. The Power Station car park is free at the weekend.

Note – the entrance on the Douglas side of the estate will be open all day. The entrance on the Brewery side of the estate will close at 2.20pm. This is due to races crossing the estate road after that time. As such, if parking on the estate roads and car parks follow marshals instructions and ensure other vehicles can pass your car. Some designated turning points will be marked out – please do not park in these spaces.

Hot food will be available at the Race HQ near the Douglas end of the course along with toilets. These can also be found marked on the map at different points on the estate.

The registration desk will be open before the race as usual from 1pm at the latest.

Hopefully all will work well regarding parking if runners share transport or park away from the estate. If all is a success next year parking should be alleviated as a new car park is planned on the estate. Please do pass on feedback about the new course etc. to Andy Fox at andycfox@outlook.com
