the course

The course starts at the farm and almost immediately climbs Sugarwell Hill then crosses over to Woodhouse Ridge climbing all the way to the top edge with a fantastic long and fast zig zagging descent across the whole ridge before returning to the farm. It’s so fun that you’ll want to do it twice, which you can if you enter the 10km!

Navigation / Markings

This is a fully marked course. All junctions are clearly marked and marshalled at key junctions.

WHAT’s included

Race Entry. All medals and tees are sold as optional extras upon entry. This is to reduce our impact on the environment, and to make our races more affordable for everyone.

Mandatory / Recommended Gear

Depending on weather we might make some gear mandatory, This will be confirmed nearer the date.

PARKING

There is plenty of nearby parking available - however we ask that if Meanwood Valley Urban Farm is full please avoid the nearby housing estate (as this often upsets the residents). We always like to encourage all local runners to carshare, come via foot, bicycle or public transport. Please plan your journey to allow time to get to race HQ. We will have an area set to lock up your bikes.
