All crossings of the main roads should be by und erpasses and the river must be crossed by bridges. Be careful when close t o parking areas - keep to the outside and run round car parks rather than through them.\n\nThe area is mainly open parkland with little-to-no elevat ion change which makes for fast running.\n\nNOTE: Features such as deep dr ainage ditches and very challenging summer undergrowth (nettles and brambl es) can be found in the wooded parts making it difficult and slow to cross \, even in the white areas. Leg cover is HIGHLY advised and route choice u sing paths could well be faster.\n\nOut of bounds - there are a number of areas marked with hatching to show they are out of bounds - these are mark ed for fairness and more importantly your safety - so please no not enter these areas. Flower beds (marked in olive green) are strictly out-of-bound s too.\n\nTrainers or trail shoes without studs are recommended.\n\nContro ls will be SIAC enabled with punching start/finish.\nEntry\nPrices - SENIO R £5 (member)\, £7 (non-member)    |    JUNIOR £3 (mem/non-mem)\n \nThe max charge to enter as a family is £13 (non-members £17).\n\nEntry -on-day is charged at non-member rates.. SI card hire is free.\n\n \;& nbsp\; \; \; \; \;\n\nSafety\nDo not cross major roads - m ajor roads to be crossed by underpass. Cross river using bridges only.\n\n Be aware of cars and other pedestrians: the long course as a route choice to follow a road\, which may carry busy traffic. As mentioned earlier\, pl ease run round car parks\, rather than through them and do not enter areas marked as Out of Bounds (hatched areas).\n\nCourses close (&\; control collectors will be dispatched) at 8:30 pm sharp\, after which time compet itors must report to download so that we don't spend time looking for you.
