Jesus Green and Midsummer Common sit right on the River Cam in the centre of Cambridge and give you a long stretch of flat, open ground for 5K training. The River Cam towpath extends well beyond both, heading south toward Grantchester Meadows. The most distinctive option is The Backs, where the towpath runs alongside the university colleges - it can get busy on sunny days, but early mornings are usually clear. 10K runs in Cambridge are there when you're ready to go further.
