Course
An off-road 10-mile loop through the Charnwood countryside for runners and walkers, starting and finishing at the Scout Group HQ. The ground is rough and uneven — rocks, mud, tree roots and wet grass — with steep climbs and descents, a bridleway to Woodhouse Eaves and a permissive path beside a stream. Water station around 5.5 miles near Broombriggs car park, and more at the finish. A junior fun run runs alongside.
