Safety
Long (sprint) course suitable for over 16s, or under 16s accompanied by an adult, as it involves crossing streets (although they are minor and usually quiet).
Short course suitable for all ages – under 16s can run unaccompanied as it does not involve crossing streets.
It is a public park, so you will encounter members of the public, dogs, and so on. Sports matches may be taking place on the pitches; please be sensible and run around (the rugby pitch and cricket square are marked as out of bounds anyway).
Courses have been planned so that shorts are suitable, although you may find a shorter (but probably not faster) route by hacking through some undergrowth.
