Middleton Park

The series is designed to cater for beginners of all ages.

All children and young people can take part in the events.

We also welcome adults who would like to try out the sport

Parkland venues are chosen so suitable courses can be planned in a safe environment.

Safety Information

A comprehensive risk assessment will have been carried out by the organiser, but participants take part at their own risk and are responsible for their own safety during the event. Parents are expected to shadow young and/or inexperienced children.

Because of the wooded nature of this area and large size of the Park we will ask that adults accompany junior beginners .

For youngest competitors we provide three Short (about 1- 1.5km) courses. Do one and we tend to find a lot of the kids end up doing all 3!

For Adult beginners,older children and those that have attended earlier events in the series there will be 2 Medium courses ideal for someone with a “Park Runner” type background.

All courses stay inside the park and do not cross any public roads
