Route information
Get ready Poole to MoRun around the stunning Upton Country Park! Most of the course is off-road so we recommend wearing trail running shoes as it can get muddy at this time of year. Other than that it's a great run!
The course is undulating, dog friendly and a mix of trail with muddy sections and also paths. 5k is one lap and the 10k is two laps and the half marathon is an initial 1.1k out and back before 4 full laps - course not suitable for wheelchair users. Off road running buggies are ok. 2 sections of the course are road crossings so please take care at these points.
