Stowmarket Striders stages two road races from Stowupland High School in Suffolk: a half marathon and a 10K. The event uses a rural course on a mix of B roads and quiet single-track lanes through undulating countryside. Roads are not closed to traffic except in the start area; runners must keep left and follow marshal instructions while remaining alert at junctions.
Key facts:
- Half Marathon (open to entrants aged 17 and older)
