The course is contained within the parkland on the inside of Market Rasen Racecourse.

The course largely follows the slightly undulating tarmac service track around the inside rail of the course.

Runners go clockwise and it consists of a shorter first lap of approximately 1k, followed by two longer laps of approximately 2k each. The two Mablethorpe RC ladies were among the 193 runners.

All parkrun events in this country are currently suspended due to the Coronavirus.
