Abbeydale

Abbeydale maprun course takes you right through Abbeydale, touching on Saintbridge, as well as North through Abbeymead and up as far as Barnwood park. The area is generally pretty flat, with a great path network, as well as plenty of small suburban roads, so there should be no need to run too much on the larger roads through the area.

Note that the Abbeydale course was one of earliest courses, and has a different scoring system from most. Checkpoints are numbered from 10 to 39, numbers 10-19 are worth 10 points, 20-29 are worth 20 points, and 30-39 are worth 30 points. The catch is that penalties for late completion are 30 points per minute or part minute!

Parking at Abbeydale Sports and Community Centre, and is free.

The start and finish are at the path junction on the path to the play area just past the Community Centre and before you get to the bridge over the stream. Make sure you run through this point to start your route, and again back through it to stop the clock on your run.
