Courses: 

The long course (4.5km) may involve crossing roads with significant traffic. Runners must be at least 16 years old to run this course.

The short course (2.5km) involves some road crossings in a quiet residential area. Runners will not encounter significant traffic on these road crossings so British Orienteering rule 7.2 does not prevent juniors from competing on this course. There will be marshals in place (rule 14.21), though this is more to ensure that juniors do not encounter hazards away from the expected route (rule 14.16). These marshals will also assist runners to cross roads safely.

Courses: 

2 courses: Short/Junior and Long

Start Times: 

5:30pm - 7pm

Planner: 

Herbie Ashworth

Other Notes: 

All runners should be mindful of the hazards of running in an urban area. Wearing high visibility clothing is recommended.
