The course

Ground conditions will depend very much on the weather closer to the event. It is fundamentally on crushed stone however with tree detritus the ground can become a bit slippy and mucky. The route is fully marked and essentially a 2 lap course. Salcey Forest is fundamentally flat - but any sort of uphill on a 10k feels like a mountain!

Getting there

It is 18 minutes from Northampton and 9 minutes from Junction 15 of the M1. The closest train station is Northampton

Parking

You do have to pay to park (we’ve negotiated a special offer of £3.50 for the evening! We’ll send emails out to entrants to make this happen). That said, be a hero and car share, save money and the world!
