Are you ready to Run Rampage?

Published on: 22 April 2017

Rampage is almost here

Thank you to everyone who’s been brave enough to sign up or sign their little ones up for our first ever Rampage Run. This is sure to be a fantastic event. We’re incredibly excited to put you all through our specially designed obstacle course and we hope you all gain a real sense of achievement after completing it. You already have our respect for taking it on. As the event is quickly approaching we’d like to share with you some important information on the race days, how to find us, what’s involved, race procedures, rules and other information we think you might need.

FINDING US

We are located at 60 Desertmartin Road. This is half way between Desertmartin and Moneymore on the main Desertmartin Road, A29. You will see our carpark on one side of the road and The Jungle on the opposite side of this road. If you’ve taken a turn off the main A29, you’ve gone off track. PLEASE DO NOT USE SAT NAVS TO FIND US. The maps are incorrect and will lead you off course. We have provided a link below to show exactly where we are located:

On Arrival

On arrival please park in the designated car park. There will be reserved car parking spaces for Campers. If the car park is full you can park along the hard shoulder outside The Jungle. We will have 2 car park attendants on site directing cars on arrival. Once parked please follow the signs and walk through the Subway Tunnel into The Jungle farmyard. PLEASE DO NOT CROSS THE ROAD. There may be substantial traffic and you must use the Subway tunnel to arrive in The Jungle safely.

We suggest that participants arrive around 45 minutes before your race time to register. Registration will be in the Jungle Farmyard and will be clearly signposted. You will be given a colour coded wristband at Registration. There are 2 different wristbands, one for participants who are dong the Rampage Run only and another for those who chose the Rampage Run and Camping option.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

  • We have a secure and manned bag drop area if you’d like us to keep any bags or important items. It will be a small charge of £1 per bag.
  • We will have separate male and female changing rooms in the Farmyard.
  • We have toilets both in the Farmyard and behind the Big Barn. There are additional toilets on site if required.
  • Drinks and food purchased from the Burger Bar or Licensed Bar will be CASH ONLY
  • We do not have a cash (ATM) machine on site, so we advise to come prepared with cash.

You will get wet, you will get muddy and you will be pushed to your limits.

Prepare yourselves accordingly.

CAMPING

Campers can set up only after their race has finished. We have a huge area for camping and there will be more than enough space to put all the tents. On arrival Campers will be given a specific colour coded wristband. This enables them to have access to hot showers, a Camping plot, access to the Bright & Tight Disco in the evening and a hot breakfast on Sunday morning. There will a Log Cabin for beautifying purposes for any males or females who need to use mirrors and electrical sockets. We will also have electrical sockets in the Big Barn for anyone wanting to charge their mobile phones or other devices. Campers will have until 4pm on Sunday 30th to check out.

  • Please have respect for fellow campers and limit noise late on in the evening past midnight.
  • You have until 4pm to check out on Sunday 30th.
  • Camping wristbands must be worn at all times and will be marked off against the various Camping privileges.
