This is a 10K lap through Wendover Woods which was well sign posted and easy to navigate. X1 for the 10k X2 for the 1/2 Marathon X4 for the marathon. It’s in nature and trail running with a couple of steep hills to climb. There’s not many spectators but its beautiful scenery. Cafe and toilets are tip top... the entry fees were reasonable.
