What you’re in for
Urban Trail Series race starting at Durham University's Maiden Castle sports centre. The 10-mile route follows the River Wear out through the woods around Shincliffe and Croxdale, then returns to the city by lesser-known paths and finishes with the climb of Whinney Hill and its view of Durham Cathedral. A 5K runs on the same morning. The course is taped and marshalled with two checkpoints on the 10-mile, and the only kit requirement is suitable shoes. The 10-mile has a 3-hour limit, the 5K 2 hours. Registration and parking are at the Graham Sports Centre.
