The race starts and ends at Blacksnape Playing Fields in Darwen. The route is run in an anti-clockwise direction, with left turns making up almost the entire course. The route is well marshalled and features three water stations. If the weather is good, you’ll have a clear view of Pendle Hill and Longridge Fell beyond Blackburn. On an exceptionally clear day, you can even see as far as Ingleborough and the Lake District!
