Bulmer/Castle Howard run.
Virtual Earth

(When in Virtual Earth click on hybrid view to get a
satellite image overlaid with the map, use the zoom function and download the 3D
installer ((it's free)) to get a better idea of topography and elevation
changes.)
Over the
years many club members have enjoyed training runs in the splendid
Howardian Hills around Castle Howard. This used to be a regular Sunday morning
fixture and the 13/14 mile route is excellent marathon preparation.
I have added a
map
which has a suggested route (and two alternate routes)
beginning at the village of Bulmer, recently a tea shop has opened in Welburn so
you could start there (pushpin 4) if you fancy some post run refreshment.
You are advised to cross check the online map with a proper Ordinance Survey
map, be physically capable of running for 2-3+ hours and to have the correct
attire for off-road running.
Bishop Wilton 15 mile trail run.

Another favourite training run begins at the village of Bishop Wilton.
Plenty of hills and a distance of 15 miles make this a bit gruelling for the
un-initiated, but the splendid views over the Vale of York go some way to make
up for the effort expended.
You are advised to cross check the online map with a proper Ordinance Survey
map, be physically capable of running for 3+ hours and to have the correct
attire for off-road running.
Various

1.City centre / River / Fulford Golf course / Hull Road (13 miles).
2.City centre / Clifton Bridge / Holgate Road/
Knavesmire / River(9.5miles)
Health Warning
Anyone who has a health problem, and is out running with club members, are
requested to make someone present aware of the details. This will ensure that if there are any problems whilst out running with club members they can be dealt with efficiently.
Hi-Vis Training
Would all runners ensure that they have at least one item of clothing which incorporates some type of reflective strips or wear a fluorescent waistcoat or ankle/arm
bands (or all if you have them!!). From a motorists point of view it is very difficult to pick out runners as they are crossing roads.
Reflective clothing available from all good
running
shops
