The race starts in the road by the show field and goes past the school until it turns sharp right up Sidegate Lane. A short distance up the lane, there is a track on the left. Climb a fence by this track and bear right up the ridge to the summit of Town Edge. From the summit there is a steep descent back down to cross Sidegate Lane. Then a steep drop over a wall before returning through the fields to climb the wall and run back up the road, towards the show field.
