The start and finish are on grass opposite the Band Stand. The course follows primarily road closures and pathways through the city centre and the Historic Docks. The 10k route is a double lap of the 5k course and includes a return to Gloucester Park and a loop out into Spa Road. The event is chip-timed and finishers receive a Race for Life medal.
Facilities listed for the event include refreshments, toilets, and on-site enquiries. Dogs are allowed and the site is described as suitable for pushchairs. Some services are not available, including bag drop, showers, on-site parking, bike racks, and electric vehicle charging points.
Accessibility information notes that the event can accommodate wheelchair users but assistance may be needed because the start and finish are on grass, which may become boggy in poor weather. There are blue badge parking spaces at Gloucester Quays car park, approximately 600 m from the start and finish; there is no blue badge parking at Gloucester Park itself. The event has a minimum fundraising target of £50. Entry fees are shown as £17.49 for adults and £11.00 for children. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
