• Know your athlete's start time & projected
times for each leg of the event. This should give
you a good idea of when they'll arrive at any point
on the course.
• Allow yourself plenty of time to park. There
are plenty of parking spaces in ExCeL, or you can
use the DLR. Plan to arrive early.
• Be careful along the course. Don't get in
the way of athletes & if you need to cross the
course, make sure you're in the clear and obey the
commands of the police and course marshals.
• Have a meeting spot for after the race.
• Remember your essentials: hat, sunscreen,
sunglasses and bottled water.
NB: Please remind spectators that they must respect
the safety of the competitors and they are urged
to always be aware of the race going on around them.
The Britannia Pedestrian Bridge which crosses Victoria
Dock is a public right of way and is not to be used
