THE COURSE
The race starts at Piglove and follows the Trans Pennine Trail for 21km and turns around just before Fairburn Ings. The Half marathon follows the same route turning round at 10.5km.
This is a very fast and flat course with very good quality footpath conditions, as it follows the river it is incredibly flat, however, there are a couple of small bridges with steps that must be crossed.
Any crossings and turnaround points will be clearly marked and marshalled.
