The Carlisle course is predominantly flat all the way round, mostly running on smooth paths and grass, with a short section of woodland trails. You will run around the newly renovated Sheepmount Stadium before heading back into woodlands and the gardens of Bitts Park.
There are a mixture of obstacles along the way including inflatables, climbing, crawling and mud!
Remember to bring a towel and change of clothes for the way home!
Please arrive 15 to 20 minutes before your start time so that you are prepared and ready to go on time.
The start and finish lines are situated on the main playing fields of Bitts Park.
