The timed stages make up 20K of the 24.5K route. The unique format breaks the route down into bite sized stages, each stage having its own character. Each stage is raced, and competitors receive results for each stage as well as the combined overall result. Between stages competitors have the opportunity to relax a little, regroup with their team and friends and refocus before the next timed stage begins. Participants are set off at regular intervals every few seconds, so there will always be someone to chase." "A host of refreshments to refuel on the way round, as well as the Thornbridge Beer Tent, Wood Fired Pizza and BBQ at the finish to enable reward for successful completion.

"Starting and finishing in the picturesque East Yorkshire town of South Cave, the course takes in some beautiful scenery through quiet country roads and provides just enough of a challenge to keep even the seasoned striders on their toes. We start at the beautiful gates of Cave Castle - not many start lines in Yorkshire can boast such a battle-ready backdrop :) through the historic town of South Cave (not a village, locals will remind you: it was granted a town charter by King Edward I in 1291!). You will then run through the countryside to the pretty village of Ellerker before looping round and returning to South Cave, with a couple of sharp climbs to add to the fun before your run is completed by a lap of the local playing field."
