Courses

Course description: All courses are within Bute Park so juniors can run any of the courses. Novice / junior course The novice /junior course is about 1km as the crow flies but you will need to run further to complete, with 10 controls and all within the confines of the Bute Park. We would suggest that all novices try this course first before running one of the longer courses. All runners under 16 years of age must run this course. Medium The second course is about 3.5km long and has 15 controls to visit. Long The longest course is about 6km, direct line and about 18 controls
