Is it wheelchair/pushchair friendly?
The course is uneven in places so care must be taken at all times. There is plenty of space on the route, so people with reduced mobility are welcome to complete the course, avoiding the bubble stations, colour stations or inflatables if they are unable to tackle them. Anyone with reduced mobility should be accompanied by a registered adult.
