About Us

The course starts on the third oval of Ashgrove Sportsground and heads north along the grass around the perimeter of the precinct in an anticlockwise fashion for approximately 1km. When a full lap is almost complete, the course joins on to the Enoggera Creek Bikeway and heads south to the Ashgrove Scout Hut. Once you've reached the Scout Hut, you will then loop and return north the way you've come (continuing past our bikeway entry point), all the way to the end of the bikeway. Once at the end of the bikeway, you turn around once again to the original bikeway entry point. Once here, you will cut up to the oval and complete one full lap in the opposite, clockwise direction back to the starting point. This is a predominantly flat course. There will be marshals to provide directions around the major turns to guide runners round the course. Facilities Toilet facilities are available at Ashgrove Sportsground.
