Course notes describe the 1 mile as a slight incline with views and festive artwork along the route. The 5 km has gradual inclines on the way out and declines on the return. The 10 km follows a hilly course with notable views and a piece of surprise artwork near the halfway point. Specific turn-by-turn guidance lists streets including Foss, Tarry Lane, Besson Lane and Adams, with an orange skull marking each turnaround.
