The courses start from Colyton Grammar school and head up towards Jobblehayes and Morganhayes woods on the hill overlooking the Axe Valley. 10K runners will loop through those woods before re-joining the 5K course. There is then a long gentle downhill path through sheep pastures where runners can enjoy spectacular views of the Axe estuary and Lyme Bay beyond. They join the lanes above the school and head to the finish on the school playing fields.
