The route includes a section around Wildflower Meadow within the first 2 km that follows a track which can be uneven due to tree roots. An alternative line on tarmac is available after about 1 km, rejoining the main route after roughly 2 km. A slight incline from the sea wall up to Stoke Road affects part of the course; wheelchair access is possible with assistance.
Facilities listed for the event include refreshments, toilets, and provisions for pushchairs. Dogs are not allowed; bag drop, showers, and onsite parking are not available. Local parking is managed offsite with nearby city centre car parks noted, and public transport links serve the area. Entry information on age limits, pricing, and minimum fundraising targets is published for the event. Participants receive event materials such as a fundraising pack, a customisable back sign, training support, and a medal on completion.
