Course and facilities
The route is an out-and-back on canal towpath with greenery alongside the canal. The course is described as not overly challenging. Feed stations are located around every three miles and organisers aim to be cup-less, so participants are asked to bring a reusable cup or bottle. There may be unmarshalled road crossings. Parking is available in a pub field; a £5 charge applies to the pub. Car sharing is recommended.
