The race starts and finishes in the Deer Park on the Eastnor Castle Estate.  It is an undulating 7 mile rural course over footpaths, tracks and through woodland, culminating in the "Orrible" climb to the Obelisk.  There will be a drinks station at approximately 4 miles and refreshments at the finish.
