The Burn Vally Run will be
clearly marked with mile markers and well marshalled. The course
is run entirely
on minor roads. It is a very attractive course, taking you from
Masham market square through the grounds of Swinton
Castle, following the picturesque Burn Valley.
It rises to the Leeds Pals war memorial near the top of Breary
Banks. From there it drops down past Spout House Farm and
returns through Healey and Fearby via Colsterdale.
Turning right at Fearby Cross there is a fast downhill section before
climbing back to Swinton, just 1.5 miles from the finish at Masham
School.
There are drinks stations at Swinton Castle and
Kell Bank Primary School, Pine Wood Manor, Pasture House, Kell Bank
and Swinton Castle. There will also be toilets and medical
facilities at Kell Bank School. |
