Fast 5 1k-lap course around a flat picturesque park. Great course for training, breaking a PB or just enjoying an organised run. Races are Athlete bar code timed so results are highly accurate and available quickly. The course is certified by Course measurement and insured under UKA. All Results will appear on Run Britain and Power of 10 rankings.
Route Description
The course has some very small undulations and only 2 turns on each lap so is a fast, fast course.
The course records are held by Male –
Gary Shaw From BurnleyAC (15:57) & Female Sarah Ridehalgh (19:00) from Accrington RR (this was run on old slower course though)

The Route starts and ends in the same position at the statue in the middle path of the park. This will allow runners to finish off the main route and not disrupt other runners still running. Starting from the middle path it goes past the lucky dog, down the small hill and heads along the straight path to the bowling green entrance. Turning right through the bollards onto the straight and keeping on the path passing the bandstand to the bottom of the path. It then goes round the cones to the long straight back to the beginning of the race route. Repeat this route another 4 times till you get to the finish. The clock will be at the start so those interested in pacing simply need to divide your target time by 5 to get your 1k lap time.
Prizes

League Prizes
(1) The top 3 male and female runners with the best average times over the 4 races is awarded with a prize
(minimum 3 races to qualify).
(2) I will also award prizes for Course PB improvers – basically those who show the most percentage improvement over the 4 races.
