THE COURSE

A flat or slightly undulating course starting within Ronaldsway Industrial Estate close to the Sefton Express Hotel.

Firstly, complete a lap of the Industrial Estate before heading towards the roundabout at the exit of the Estate. From here you complete 2 laps of the following:

Turn left and head towards Ballasalla. Go through Ballasalla - over the level crossing, passing the Whitestone Pub and turning left at the roundabout at Ballasalla Stores. Continue towards Cross Four

Ways and onto the Southern 100 course in reverse, passing through Billown and heading towards Ballabeg Corner. At Ballabeg Corner turn left and continue to Ballakeighan Corner where you again

turn left onto the Castletown-By-Pass. At Castletown go straight on at the traffic lights at the railway bridge (leaving the Southern 100 course) and keeping left at the next roundabout, pass the Viking &

Sidings Pubs and the Station Garage. Turn left at the Janets Corner roundabout, pass King Williams College and back to the Airport roundabout.

After 2 laps, turn back into the Industrial Estate for a further lap of the estate, following the same route as at the beginning of the race, noting that the Finish Line is close to the lane leading to the old

Ronaldsway Social Club.

Runners are advised to keep to the left at all times in single file unless otherwise instructed by marshals.

 

The racecourse uses busy, narrow open roads and is not deemed safe for wheelchairs or buggies. It is also not permitted to follow the race in a vehicle.

 

***PLEASE REMEMBER THAT YOU WILL BE RUNNING ON OPEN ROADS - PLEASE RUN SENSIBLY AND CAREFULLY***

 

HEAD-PHONES AND RACE KIT

As the race is along open roads, and runners must be able to hear marshals' instructions as well as traffic, HEAD PHONES & EAR BUDS ARE NOT PERMITTED. However, the wearing of ‘open ear’

headphones will be permitted in line with UKA rules. Infringements will result in the entrant being open to disqualification and ineligibility for an award.

For safety reasons Hi-Viz tops or bright clothing must also be worn by all runners and walkers.
