What to expect en route
Starting and finishing in the picturesque East Yorkshire town of South Cave, the inaugural South Cave 10k course takes in some beautiful scenery through quiet country roads and provides just enough of a challenge to keep even the seasoned striders on their toes. We start at the beautiful gates of Cave Castle - not many start lines in Yorkshire can boast such a battle-ready backdrop :) through the historic town of South Cave (not a village, locals will remind you: it was granted a town charter by King Edward I in 1291!).
You will then run through the countryside to the pretty village of Ellerker before looping round and returning to South Cave, with a couple of sharp climbs to add to the fun before your run is completed by a lap of the local playing field. As you collect the first-ever South Cave 10K medal, we hope you will have had as much fun as we have had – setting the event up.
All runners must register at Race HQ before making their way to the start line.
