The 5 mile lap starts and finishes on the Bedford Embankment, follows paths toward Town Bridge, crosses the river, runs alongside the River Ouse and loops around Priory Lake before returning to the Embankment. The surface is tarmac or firm paths. The 10 mile route bypasses the finish area to complete the lap a second time.

The event offers a finish-area commentator, on-site catering for spectators, a custom medal and finish-line snacks.
