Course information
The 10k is a double lap of the 5k route.
The 5K route begins in front of the grandstand, heading out along the path parallel to the flats that overlook the racecourse. The route then enters the proximity of the racecourse and follows it around the edge for approximately 3KM, before looping around the driving range and heading back towards the event site.
The 10K route then splits off at the betting station, heading towards the grass outside of the main grandstand. It then continues onto a section parallel to the racecourse before re-joining the 5k route for a second lap toward the finish.
Please be aware the ground can be uneven at times.
Please bring a filled water bottle with you to your event as we're proactively managing our impact on the environment. We will be removing single-use plastic bottles.

Parking
Although the majority of the route takes place on tarmac, there is a 1km section of the course which is on uneven and potentially boggy grass. There are also a number of uneven and challenging surfaces along the route. Therefore, the route is deemed not accessible for wheelchair or pushchair users. The Course has an overall ascent of 18m throughout the full 10K course.
Accessible parking will be available in Car Park 4 and the start/finish area is on hardstanding.
