Course and support
The route largely follows the Chesterfield Round Walk and passes high moorland, ancient woodland, reservoirs, rolling farmland and restored former mining areas around Chesterfield. There are six checkpoints on course: four provide drinks only and two provide food and drink with sweet and savoury options. The trickiest sections are marked with race signage; for most of the route runners are expected to use map, GPS or route notes and Chesterfield Round waymarks. Medic cover is provided on the course and at race HQ. Finishers receive a special 10 year anniversary memento and light refreshments at the community resource centre. Free car parking is available at the centre and on adjoining estate roads. The event has a nine hour time limit; to meet that limit participants must reach Checkpoint 4 within five hours.
