Route information

This is a lapped run, taking runners around the course three times. Everyone will run along on the hard-packed, tree-lined paths of the Victoria park, witnessing the best of this park's greenery. The flat nature of the course makes it one of the quickest races in the season and a perfect opportunity to clock a PB.

The course will be clearly way-marked throughout with signs, arrows and distance markers. There will also be marshals stationed throughout the course to guide runners in the right direction as well as cheer them on.

Please remember that this is a public park and there will be other runners, cyclists, or dog-walkers using the paths during the race.

Did the race in 2022

Had a good experience yesterday. It wasn't all that busy (fewer than 100 participants) which meant number collection and handing in bags was prompt and easy. There were a good numbers of marshals on the course placed in the right spots and all were friendly and encouraging. The race director was clear and consise at all times and encouraged runners out on the course. Have raced at Victoria park a number of times and it is just a fantastic PB course and will be joining these guys for more 10ks there again. The goodies at the end were Quality - really impressed of what was offered - maybe best yet in any race I've attended! The medal was worth the sweat and tears too. See you again soon.

Very enjoyable run (admittedly helped by the day being a spectacular sunny, cool day) - splendid marshalls, well organised and a good chunky medal!

Love running in Victoria Park so to be able to attend a race there was a no brainer for me. Friendly volunteers and great encouragement from the marshals on the route have already got me looking at signing up to another Race Organiser event soon.

Really enjoyed this event, good information shared before the day and lots of helpful volunteers when arrived, would definitely recommend!

Did the race in 2020

This is a 3-lap course so it is not the most interesting run, but that also makes it good for a PB since it is flat, and easy to pace yourself as you can anticipate the splits. It helped that it was a beautiful, clear, sunny day, so the park looked lovely, but it might have been a bit boring if it wasn’t such a nice day. Because it is a lap course, if you are a slower runner like me, you will have lots of speedier runners lapping you on the second lap. That can be either inspiring or frustrating, depending on your attitude.There was a lovely Sunday market in the park after the event, which was great for refueling with some nice, artisan street food vendors.

This was my first experience at a running race. Although i'm not a big fan of running i loved it. There was a great atmosphere and you could tell the organisers wanted you to enjoy it. Highly recommend running this race.

Very easy going race, pancake flat and a beatiful sunny morning. Some quick runners setting good times, but pretty spread pack. Bag queue a bit long at the end of a cold run...
