FEED STATIONS
The Castle Race Series will be working with fuelling partner, Precision Fuel & Hydration to provide you with comprehensive food and drink stations.
On The Bike
One feed station will be placed at Black Hill Car Park on the Ashdown Forest (pretty much the highest point on the course) at 18K into the bike route. You will pass this feed station twice, once at 18K and then again on your second lap at 63K. Or at 33K and 93K if you are on the 60K bike route.
In addition there will be a further feed station just before the re-entry point to the castle, at 45K or 60K dependent on the course you are on.
The team of volunteers will have a selection of food and drink available for you including the following:
- Pre-mixed bottles of water
- PF 30 Energy Gels
- PF 30 Energy Chews
- Pre-mixed bottles of water
- Pre-mixed bottles PH 1000 electrolyte drink
- 1/2 Bananas (cut in half)
Drinks from these stations will be handed out in bike specific drink bottles. Each station will be followed by a large container ready to catch your empty bottles or litter.
On The Run
There will be 2 feed stations. The 1st feed station will be at 2K at the South East corner of Park Wood. A 2nd feed station will be placed just inside the Castle gates by The Castle Inn in Chiddingstone High Street. This is 7K into the run.
Each feed station will have a team of volunteers, and both will have an identical selection of food and drink available for you as per the bike feed station including the following:
- Pre-mixed bottles of water
- PF 30 Energy Gels
- PF 30 Energy Chews
- Pre-mixed bottles of water
- Pre-mixed bottles PH 1000 electrolyte drink
- 1/2 Bananas (peeled)
- Coco Cola (flat)
- Sweets (varies)
Drinks from these stations will be in cups. Please use the bins provided further along the course for your empties rather than dropping them in the grounds of the Castles.
Additionally there will be a water station at 5.3K at Hill Hoath. There will be a second water station at 10.5K at the end of the lap.
