START
The race will begin on the Ormskirk School field. The exact starting point will be next to the hedge adjoining the tennis courts.
From there, runners will complete one circuit of the school fields before exiting onto Ormskirk Cricket Club field. Following a clockwise circuit of the cricket field runners will exit the gates and turn left onto Altys Lane.
Runners continue to the end of Altys Lane and, shortly after the 2K marker, turn right onto Scarth Hill Lane. After about one hundred metres there is a sharp left turn taking the course onto Catherines Lane (Drinks stations will be situated along this stretch of the course).
At the end of Catherines Lane a left turn takes runners onto Croppers Lane for around 600 meters before turning left again into Poppy Lane.
At the end of Poppy Lane the course turns left into Scarth Hill Lane and continues for just over 1 Kilometre before turning left again into Catherines Lane for the 2nd circuit of Catherine’s, Cropper’s, Poppy & Scarth Hill Lanes.
After around 1 Kilometre of Scarth Hill runners will turn right onto Altys Lane and head back towards Ormskirk Cricket Club.
The course turns right into Ormskirk Cricket Club and takes runners on a clockwise circuit of the playing field. The finish line is a few metres past the score box.
