Course information

The Norwich Pretty Muddy route is a 5k course on a mixture of grass and paths, winding its way around all areas of the showground.  It is fairly flat, though does pass through a tree lined area. There are several cheering points along the way providing a fantastic atmosphere.

There will not be any water refill stations along the course so if you require water during the event, please remember to bring your own reusable water bottle already filled up. You will be able to refill this at the refill station when you finish.

Please arrive 15 to 20 mins before your start time so that you are prepared and ready to go on time.

Our courses have been measured with a measuring wheel. This is the most accurate measurement method and may not always correspond with digital tracking apps and watches.
