About
Ninesprings by Night happens in the surroundings of Ninesprings which is a part of Yeovil Country Park on the edge of Yeovil in South Somerset. The country park forms an excellent backdrop for running in with its woods, lakes, streams, springs and Victorian gardens and café, which serves as our race HQ.The area is named for the nine natural springs which flow from the valley. This was made into an ornamental garden for the Aldon estate in the 19th century. There are numerous paths to explore in the area and save from one that we all love to run. There is a bit of a risk of falling in a pond during the race including an exhilarating downhill section!

Route information
The race is on a 5k course with two laps for the 10k. We’ve gone for this option so we can mark the course with plenty of signage and course markings. There will also be an aid station at the end of the 5k, halfway and at the end of the 10k. The course will be well marked with plenty of signs with reflective elements, reflective course markings and lights to guide you around.
The course takes you past the start/finish twice per lap and is excellent for spectators wanting to cheer the runners on. DO think about wearing something distinctive so your friends and families can pick you out. There will be a prize for the best dressed runner.
Terrain varies from the tarmac along the cycle path – also known as the Yellow brick road – to gravel paths, mud paths and in a few places stone steps.
What's included
All finishers will receive a finishers medal for the 5 or 10k.

Several public car parks and the private car park serving the Nuffield Gym are within easy walking distance of the Race HQ.
Please note these car parks are only free after 6pm so if arriving before parking fees will apply.
Locals may know there is another car park near the playground but we’re asking runners to avoid parking here as I’m asking marshals to park here to make sure there is more parking free by the race HQ. Also this small car park is on the race route, so early finishers may struggle to get their cars out while other people are still running.
CLOSEST CAR PARK
Goldenstones car park is right by the café which serves as the race HQ and has 144 spaces, although some will be in use by users of Goldenstones swimming pool and gym.

A SHORT WALK AWAY
The car park that serves the leisure complex that the Nuffield Gym is a part of is easy walking distance to the Race HQ. The car park can be access off Old Station Way and is free after 6. To get to the race HQ from the car park walk back towards the entrance and cross the road once the path on the other side is no longer blocked by a fence. Once on this path and cycle way follow it straight to the café and race HQ. The path isn’t lit so please use your head torch 😉 It’s a former train line so is about as straight as it gets. You’ll walk past flats on your right and then a garage and church before getting into the Ninesprings area of the country park. Keep going straight till you reach the cafe.
