Hi, I've signed up for this run - my first 10km which I'm really looking forward to! Can anyone tell me if majority of the run is on grass, or footpaths? Thanks.

The course is two laps of Graves Park, maily on grass with some paths. Graves Park is one of the best locations in Sheffield for injury free running.

Can't wait for the Run in the park 10k. I was really up for running with my daughter at 'Race For Life' at Don Valley, but ended up having to sit in the stands (felt a bit misled by the 'you're invited' posters, cos actually men aren't invited.) This race is open for both sexes. Let's do it together and raise a shed load of money for cancer care.

Been round the course tonight , nice fun run 3Kilometres on grass and path . The 10 K is tougher but an ideal challenge for those who do a bit of running want to remember someone they have lost to cancer and want to raise a bit of cash for Weston Park over 300 entries already .
