I measured it at just under 400 foot of ascent over 5 miles last time I ran there, so not masiively hilly but a few undulations to keep people on their toes!

SPR Feb 2013 4:27pm, 9 Feb 2013 17,940 posts	Quote Pin SPR Last XC of the season today, I was outsprinted at the end by a teammate at the end. I did work hard to close the gap but still hate being outsprinted. Usually I'm the one doing the outsprinting. Have a bit of a cold so took the first two laps easy then worked hard on the last lap. Overall was a decent race, apart from the finish.
Lisa T Feb 2013 6:00pm, 9 Feb 2013 1,323 posts	Quote Pin Lisa T Well done Garfield! NE Harrier League today. Great race. Improved on this course by nearly 2 mins & moving towards the top half of the pack, so really happy with that! And ... boo to being outsprinted by your teammate SPR!
