The route: is a challenging and scenic course (if you watched 1997 Northumberland All Terrain Marathon it was the road race course). From the east end of the village head west past the green out of the village and across the river Tweed. Past 1m climbing steeply to the top of the Bank of Scotland both the leading man and lady will take a prime prize. Continuing the steady climb into Scotland past 2.5m turn left at the crossroads to start an undulating downhill section past 3miles to the grand gates of Ladykirk Estate and a refreshing half way drink. Accompanied by bleating of sheep on level ground follow tracks through the estate, past 4m and the great house. Exit through more grand gates onto the road where another challenging climb awaits to return you to the top of the Bank of Scotland and past 5m. A hard descent back down the bank and over the Tweed into Norham. At the village green sharp left and to the finish. Course Map.
