Organiser's Description
A testing 10 mile lapped route that will see you run around the top of the Island, and from one end - Portland Heights Hotel (385 ft), to the other - Portland Bill (30 ft). The route is undulating, on tarmac roads and pavements and goes through built up areas as well as following long stretches of coastal roads. First run in 1980 when 3 bored sailors stationed at the Royal Naval Air Station came up with the idea of a 10 mile race on Portland and the cost was 40 pence to enter! From the Royal Manor Arts College, Portland.
