Course information

The start line is on hardstanding, and the event site and finish line is on grass. Ground condition may vary due to recent weather conditions.

The course is mainly on grass with some gravel sections. Ground conditions are generally very poor so extreme caution is needed when taking part. There are various elevation changes however these are not excessive

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 30 to 45 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.
