The route
Updated from last year, we'll be staying Linn Park, no crossing to Castlemilk Woodlands - they've got their own trail race now! It's now a two lapper, meaning you get to enjoy all the hills twice!
It's roughly 10km, give or take a few hundred metres. It's a trail race....that's an 'ish'. Couple of hills, bit of mud, a few tree roots, it'll feel like more than a 10k! But it will be great and you'll love it.
The route will showcase the Centenary Trail created by the Friends of Linn Park. Information boards along the Trail give information about the history of the park. Mid race may not be an ideal time to stop and read these! Perfect for the warm-up and cool down though!
There is some nice undulations on the route! But we're avoiding the steps side of the White Cart Walkway.
We like to introduce folk to new trails, as such we'll be showcasing Linn Park in all it's wonderous beauty. Always a bit of mud to be found here! Hills and mud? Must be Acorn Trails!
There will be ups, there will be downs, and there will be mud. Even if I need to get a hose pipe out and create some!
