The route visits the iconic 'Pots and Pans' monument before heading out to Shaw Rocks (highest point) before turning back towards Alderman's Hill where the 'fun' begins. A long, technical downhill rewards runners before another long uphill battle to the shoulder of Alderman's Hill and then its a 'pleasant' run back to the finish.
Junior races start at 6pm at Binn Green Car Park.
