Green, Blue and Brown courses will not be available to any runner aged under 16 on the day of the event, as they all contain a short stretch alongside and crossing a road that has occasional fast moving traffic.
All courses cross the Leeds Liverpool Canal and River Aire. Both must only be crossed by bridges.
Junior courses in particular run on the towpath alongside the canal and past locks. This section is always popular with the public and essentially, as a result, is very safe, but can parents and guardians please ensure your children are aware of the safety issues in such an area, and if you have any doubts please either accompany or shadow them.
