Last Call for Holkham Elite Wave

Last Call for Holkham Elite Wave

Posted by on 30th May 2018

The Outlaw Half Holkham will have an elite wave on the 1 July this summer. Competitors can opt into the elite wave, which will go off first and allow head-to-head racing between the fastest competitors. The Outlaw Half Holkham features a £1500 prize pot for course record breakers.

Competitors can opt into the elite wave and the aim is to have a wave of around fifty male and female athletes. It is not necessary to hold a professional racing license or to have raced as a professional previously. Competitors in the elite wave will not be eligible for age-group prizes but will have separate prizes for the overall top competitors. Racing in the elite wave is optional, but competitors in the age-group waves will not be eligible for overall prizes.

Men: 

Finished in the top ten overall at Holkham in 2017
