THE COURSE (see map)
The Fun Run course is through Lido Park and St Peter’s Fields. This is a hilly course with some mud and tree roots to avoid. The surfaces are rough tracks, grassy fields, unmade woodland trails, compacted gravel and tarmac. Proper multi-terrain! As a fun run - all finishers will get the same medal and gift of Droitwich Salt. The run will be timed for your information only - it is not a race with finishing positions. All finishers are equal. We fully expect to see people walking up some hills and stopping to photograph the beautiful scenery on these two fabulous parks. Get your family to come and support you - and to buy you a well earned coffee or ice cream when you finish at the Lido cafe. DAC marshals will be all around the course to encourage you on (with phones to contact first aid if needed). There will be a tail runner to stay with the last runner.
