Organiser's Description
Probably the best half marathon anywhere on Easter Monday! We start at the top of a hill - and finish at the top of a hill! And the views are great! Road closures will be in effect to cover the first 3 miles from the start and in other sections. Mostly we follow quiet country roads through villages. The course isn't entirely flat, with one challenging hill when leaving Wentbridge (at about 4.5 miles - so you're fully warmed up by then!).
