Parking in the park is limited, use Allesley village and use footbridge, (300m) or Winsford Avenue and walk through the passage (150m).

The course starts on the central path across the park. Runners will run down the path for 250m to join the perimeter path, taking a left, they will complete two circuits and finish taking a right up the path they started to the finish line.With having a staggered start, it is essential that runners monitor their own progress to ensure they complet two laps. With limited number of officials, it is not possible to monitor the progress of every individual athlete, for this I apologise. There will be lapping of runners due to the type of stage and the small circuit. It is an individual time trial not a handicap race. The park is sloping so you will have three decents and three gentle climbs.
