The run starts at the Barbury Castle country park then heads along the Wessex Ridgeway to Avebury. A short loop just outside Avebury is followed by the return to Barbury for medals and rapturous applause. The route is 100% off-road trail, which is firm underfoot, but there will almost certainly be a muddy puddle or two to enjoy!
