Description of the walk

(S/E) The course starts with two laps of the athletics track, after which you will leave the stadium and go onto the park, where you will run through the Green gym equipment.

(1) From there, run towards the canal towpath. After following the path running alongside the astro turf football pitch, you will continue straight, taking the path up onto the canal.

(2) Once at the top of the path, turn right and run along the Stourbridge canal for three quarters of a mile, taking in the industrial factories to the left and right.

(3) Turn right onto Foots Hole grassland.
There is a gate here, where you will run for just over 1 mile over varying trail and gravel paths, as well as running across the old freight railway, not suitable for buggies, wheelchairs or people with limited mobility.
Once through Foots Hole Grassland, you will reach the Stourbridge canal again.

(4) Turn left onto the canal and follow the same route back to the astro Turf and back into the stadium.
The course will finish with two laps of the track and a final 100m sprint finish!(S/E)
