Juniors will swim 1, 2, 4 or 6 lengths, according to the age-group distance.<\/p>\n<p>Competitors should swim on the left-hand side of the lane except if overtaking the competitor in front, in which case they should move to the right of the lane to overtake.

Junior races take place over 1 or 2 shorter laps, according to age-group and distance. The route will be well-signposted and marshalled so that it is impossible to take a wrong turn. We have devised a spectator-friendly route to allow family, children and friends to easily view and provide support to runners both during the run and at the finish.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that the Common remains open to all users, dog-walkers, pedestrians and even cyclists. Please therefore exercise due caution and do not assume right-of-way by virtue of race participation. Please also pay attention to BTF Rules on Conduct; any competitor using foul or abusive language or behaving in a way that could potentially lead to a breach of the peace may be disqualified. Spectators should ensure that any dogs are kept on leads and refrain from ball-sports or other activities that may impede runners in any way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maps<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The routes for the run course can be found below.
