The race route begins on Muntham Drive outside the Village Hall and Social Club in the centre of Barns Green. The route goes down to the village crossroads and then along Two Mile Ash Road for a mile and a half leaving the village and heading towards Horsham. The route then turns sharp left over the old railway bridge crossing the South Downs Link by the Bax Castle Pub and proceeds towards Christ’s Hospital for another mile.
Dropping down towards Christ’s Hospital the route then takes a very sharp left turn through the East Gates of Christ’s Hospital School and into the school grounds. The runners enter the school grounds where there is a water station and then get to run along the picturesque school avenue before branching left off the avenue separating from the half marathon route for a short while and going along a road through the school playing fields before rejoining the half marathon route and exiting the school grounds through the West Gates. The route then turns left over the railway bridge and heads towards Weston’s Farm before turning left and joining the main road and heading back towards Barns Green.
There is a slight incline before once again separating from the half marathon route and then going straight on for the final 1.5 kilometres downhill into the village finishing beside the green in Sandhills Road.
