Route information
Sutton Park is one of the largest urban park's in the country and the vast majority of it is an area of National Nature Reserve.
This is a 5KM lapped course across the park's mixed terrain and through its towering woodland. In total, there will be 18 marshals on course to keep runners right as well as a water station.
This race aims to raise money for Shelter, whose mission is to help solve the current housing crisis in the UK. Every day, 110 families in England become homeless and Shelter is working tirelessly to help solve this growing issue.
