Parking
This route is accessible to wheelchair users, but due to the large majority of the course being on grass assistance is required. Due to the largely grass route, if the weather is bad, a large section of the course will be inaccessible to wheelchair users and significantly reduce the distance.
Supporter / spectator access
Please note, whilst we hope we can open our events to families and friends supporting on the day, this may not be possible due to government guidelines around COVID-19.
