The race starts with a rolling down hill through the National Trust's Bushey Norwood field. Runners then head along woodland trails around the University campus.

A quick hop over a style after 2km and runners are heading to Sham Castle (photo above) with great views of the City of Bath. Next is some fun and muddy forest trails - bring your off road shoes! Emerging from the forest after 3km and it is on to some faster tracks and fields with stunning views of Solsbury Hill and Brown's Folly on the horison.

Now it is time to head into Bathampton Wood along more exciting paths. Runners then briefly appear on the perimter of the Bath Golf Club before heading back down into Bushey Norwood for the sprint finish, the 2nd lap or to tag in your relay runner.
