The annual event attracts thousands of enthusiastic runners, keen to cover one of the most beautiful running routes in the world.
It all takes place within Windsor Great Park over a course that begins and ends on the Long Walk, covering two laps of four miles and 7.5miles each - with the remainder made up by the 1.5mile route along the Long Walk. The impressive sight of Windsor Castle in the distance beyond the finish line is an outstanding one that has encouraged many an exhausted runner to make over the final stretch.
The Governor of Windsor Castle Admiral Sir James Perowne will officially start the event this year at 10am. Runners will be served by water stations at two mile intervals.
Young runners of the future will get a chance to practice for the future at the earlier time, when the 40 yard sprite sprint takes place at 9.15am for five to nine-year-olds.
The presentation to the first three men and women back will take place at noon.
The event invariably attracts large crowds come to cheer the runners on and has become one of the biggest events in the Windsor calendar.
