Also on the course you will see World War II bunkers, breath taking views over to the Welsh Mountains, conquer the mighty Hell Steps (twice!) and enjoy stunning running along gorge edge.
There are 9 feed stations across the course to keep you well fed over this ~26.4miles course.
There is approx 1200m of height change over the full route.
