Race Route
Spectrum Striders has agreed a new race route for 2015 with the local council.

To see the 5k race route, click on the small map on this page.

The race starts & finishes in the centre of the village close to the Black Swan pub and the Village Cross.

It heads out along quiet country lanes towards Glazebrook for about 1.7k.  There is then a loop of about 1.6k at the furthest end near Glazebrook railway station before returning along the outbound route to Hollins Green.  The finish is in centre of the village, near to the start.

The road race is an accurately measured 5k.  The fun run is approx 1k (not accurately measured).
