The 5k single lap course takes a scenic route through Sefton Park. Featuring predominantly flat footpaths, it gives some stunning views of the picturesque park.

Please arrive 30 to 45 minutes before your start time so that you are prepared and ready to go on time.

Please remember to bring your own water bottle already filled as there will be no bottled water provided at events. ScottishPower water refill stations will be available to use.

The Sefton Park 5k route features flat tarmacked pathways, narrow pathways that incline and decline and areas that are covered by grass. Approximately 2km of the course is on grass and 3km of the course will be on pathways and hardstanding. We would recommend that this event is wheelchair accessible with assistance.

If spectating the event site, start, and finish line are all located on a grass field that is surrounded by tarmac pathways, and avenues. Please be aware that in wet weather ground conditions on the grassed areas can deteriorate quickly.
