Race for Life Bury St Edmunds 5k

The route is entirely on grass. It is not particularly hilly, but due to the nature of the venue the ground is uneven and can be soft and get rutted in damp weather. Rabbit holes can appear overnight, although we endeavour to fill or route around every one that we find when setting up our course. For these reasons we don’t feel that this course is wheelchair accessible. Anyone wanting to use a wheelchair or mobility scooter is encouraged to undertake an assessment of the terrain before doing so. On the day there will be accessible parking located in the main hardstanding car park.
