🏃‍♂️ The Route: Scenic & Simple!!🏃‍♀️

Your adventure kicks off at the charming bridge beside Derrington’s playing fields. From there, you’ll cruise west along the historic old railway line—flat, fast, and perfect for setting your pace. At Crossing Lane, you’ll hit your first turnaround and head back with fresh energy.

Next up: a scenic detour! You’ll veer left onto a hidden track leading into the beautiful Millennium Green. Here, you’ll loop around the peaceful pond (watch for ducks cheering you on!) before rejoining the railway line and heading east towards Stafford.

Your second turnaround awaits where the trail meets the lane, loop around, dig deep, and power back along the railway line.

But don’t stop yet! Dash past the starting point, swing left into the playing fields, and sprint to the finish—where your well-earned memento is waiting to celebrate your run! 🎉

Please come ready changed as no facilities for changing & no baggage store !

Limited Parking - so please car share, cycle down the track or jog down the lines from Stafford (a good warm up!)

Race numbers and chips to be picked up at Registration.
