CHANGE COURSE!! Just a heads up - tomorrow sees the implementation of a change at the start where we enter the circle at the wetlands and run a longer clockwise arc past the cafe to exit as usual at the Biodiversity Garden. This is designed to spread out the field and reduce the bottleneck at the exit. Then to adjust the distance to 5km we cut out the triangular loop at Stephan Way and turn immediately left onto the pathway link back to the fields.
Please do not argue with the marshals! 🙂
