Course:
The course is 5.6 miles long and is mainly on woodland paths and tracks. It is a bit technical in places with roots, rocks, steep slopes and the infamous 'Log Flume' (which is dry as a bone at the moment) will have a word with the weather Gods! Also some short tarmac sections, so we have something for everyone.
Fell or Trail shoes are essential - please do not attempt to run with roadies.
Please listen to and take notice of Marshals instructions - They are there to ensure your safety. Anyone wearing headphones will be removed from the race for this reason.
