    Derwent Runners/Mickleover host the second race of the season at Allestree Park

    Please do not attend if you or a member of your household have Covid or Covid symptoms.

    Location: Allestree Park, Derby. DE22 2EU

    Time: Main race starts at 10:30.

    Course: The same course as last year, with more grassed areas, plenty of woods, muddy in parts, with very little compacted limestone paths. 2 laps, approx. 10km in total with Start and Finish in the same location.

    Footwear: Off-road shoes; studs or spikes preferable

    Toilets: Toilets are next to the Hall. No showers.

    Parking: Car parking is very limited and the city council has forbidden parking alongside the main entrance drive. The main parking is in the wooded area, irregular in shape and not marked out - please park sensibly.

    There is more parking around the hall, which is beyond the main car park.

    There is an alternative car park at the top end of the park, off Woodland Road, and another at the Evergreen Club on Cornhill (DE22 2FT). Both of these are next to the race route, and the route markers will guide you to the Start/Finish area. Runners from Derby please use these car parks if possible.

    Please car share wherever possible

    Entry fees are being covered by the club.
