Its 10 days of opportunity to challenge yourself! - This is an INDIVIDUAL DAY ENTRY.

Whether it be 5k, 10k, Half Marathon, Full Marathon or Ultra Marathon.  

Your race, your pace, your distance!

Over the 10 days there will be different routes: *

THIS ENTRY IS FOR DAY ONE AND THE ROUTE IS DENHAM FLATS

Route description - Denham Flats
10.4 km (6.5 mi) · out-and-back from the campsite · 100% road · just 22 m of climb · high 107 m / low 89 m.

Comfortably the flattest route out from the Suffolk Running Centre. You head out on quiet lanes to a turnaround at around 5.2 km, then retrace your steps home. There's the gentlest of rises on the way out — barely noticeable, spread over the whole leg — which means it tips very slightly downhill on the way back. No hills, no surprises, no gradient to fight.

Those completing a 10k will complete one loop
Those completing a half marathon will complete two loops
Those completing a full mararhon will complete four loops
Those completing an ultra will complete either four loops plus 5k turnpoint or five full loops

Those completing a 5k will head out to a 5k turnpoint and then retrace their steps back to the Suffolk Running Centre

A GPX file can be downloaded from the "course" tab.
