If you offer me any Quorn, it'll encourage me to run faster to get away from the stuff!!!

the route takes you into hillsborough morrisons through market street past the fozen food along the soft drink isle to ensure the runners are hydrated and out through the self scan checkouts

1300. Closed from 830. You don't drive down there much then?

No, Becky B but we have visitors who will need to leave Sheffield by that route next Sunday. Thanks for the info.

Go the opposite way up Halifax road to get to the M1 or if they really need to get into town use Langsett Rd

Is it just me or does anyone wonder why on earth they choose to use a major chunk of a major artery road in and out of Sheffield for the run? Why not use a quieter road that doesn't completely balls up Sheffield traffic for most of the day

Penistone road is probably the longest flattest and widest road major road in Sheffield.

 

there would be far more disruption and risk if forcing people to run round the side streets
