It’s a fun, social event, but make no mistake: this is a genuinely challenging experience, especially when you hit the famous nine-lock climb in the final stretch. It’s not to be underestimated, yet absolutely worth every step once you reach the finish and feel that surge of achievement. With its mix of leafy paths, industrial character, and a one-off medal waiting at the end, it’s a standout 10K that leaves you both tested and proud.
