Epsom & Ewell Harriers 3km Relay Race
Nonsuch Park
Tuesday 18th June 2024
7pm start
Welcome to the fourth Epsom and Ewell Harriers 3km Relay Race at Nonsuch Park. This annual fixture provides another exciting mid-week relay race during the summer months.
The purpose of this site is to provide some information about the course and organisation of the event. Hopefully, this will answer any queries you have, but if not please do not hesitate to get in touch.
The Course
The Course
New Course for 2024: the route is similar to last year, but with a small adjustment to the changeover location and an extra 'wiggle' on the approach, to improve visibility of incoming runners.
The course is an approximately 3km loop around Nonsuch park, taking in the main avenue featured in Parkrun.
Start / Finish / Race Control will be near the Parkrun course finish. The course itself will be similar to a lap of the former Parkrun 'A' course, but will go around Nonsuch House and along the Avenue from the gate by the car park road. The course will be clearly marked and there will be marshals at key points. It is approximately 3km in length and there are 4 legs (4 athletes per team).

The person submitting the team declaration must ensure names are entered correctly. Date of birth entered will determine category.
It is the team manager / captain’s responsibility to ensure that team members are wearing the correct number for their team and participate in the correct order, as per the team declaration. Athletes in each leg should be attentive to the race and make sure they are in position for a smooth transition. No provision will be made for athletes who are not in the right place at the right time!
Parking
Parking
There are several car parks in Nonsuch Park, accessible from the Cheam Village entrance or the London Road entrances. Please consider parking in one of the London Road car parks and using that as an opportunity to for a warm up/down jog! If everyone descends on the Cheam Village entrance, there is unlikely to be enough parking. Please also consider more environmentally friendly travel arrangements if you live locally.
