Parking

Parking is at Rabbit Ings Country Park, Lund Hill Lane, Royston, Barnsley S71 4BB.

The course is on a mixture of good trail, private roads, field, and trail that could be potentially muddy if it has rained prior to the event.

There is one stretch of road about 150 yards where you will need to run along the right-hand side of the road as it would be riskier to cross the road twice on such a short stretch. Please take extra care and watch out for traffic. This road will be signposted to warn you and other road users. The courses are marshalled and signed. All distances are loops of 5 miles.

The marathon will have an out and back at the beginning of the race to make up the distance of 26.2 miles.

Cut off time

6.5 hours.

An early start is available upon request for those who may exceed the cut off time.
