Run mainly on gravel trails within the country park (and the adjacent, aptly named

trails. There are some hilly challenges that will take you on journey of
over 500 metres of elevation gain over the half-marathon loop.
Once away from the
busy front part of the country park, you will find yourself in the quiet
peaceful forest with glimpses or sounds of wildlife. Later, as you are on
the last high point before you drop down to the finish area, there are long
views through the clearings to the Solent and Isle of Wight.
The Course:
You will follow the
fully signed trail which also has a number of marshals to guide
you on your way.
Aid stations are positioned every 7km and will have water to refill your containers. Also there will be coke and a selection of sweet and savoury snacks.
