Start/Finish. The start and finish are very close to each other about 1km south of the parking at the end of the small road near Newsham.
Terrain:
1) The area is boggy. Be prepared for wet and possibly cold feet
2) Potentially most of the area could be mapped as marsh. However, marsh is generally only mapped where it affects the runability
3) There are a lot of boulders. If they are bigger than around 0.6-0.8m they are mapped
4) The areas marked on the map as fast open are short grass and are useful for navigating
5) Lidar and aerial imagery has been used to map the area so any mapped features are in the correct places.
6) Most of the features are vague, relocation is very difficult

***Refreshments***: After your run soup, hot drinks and cakes will be available to purchase in the cricket pavilion, so bring some cash along!!

Additional Notes

This is a handicapped event so that (in theory) anyone could be the winner.
You enter your chosen course on Racesignup (entry is free) and you will then be allocated a start time with the aim that everyone should be finishing about the same time (12 noon).
The first person to finish is the winner no matter what course they have run.

PROVISONAL START TIMES
NB Exact times will be available in the morning - these will only be minor tweaks
