Liverpool MoRun: Course, Route Profile & Map
The Liverpool MoRun half marathon is four laps of Croxteth Park in north-east Liverpool, preceded by a short 1.1-kilometre opening loop. The course is flat, but underfoot it mixes park paths with trail, and in late November the ground is often wet.
Course & Elevation
Start and finish are at the event hub in the park, reached from Muirhead Avenue East. According to the organiser's course map the half marathon first runs a small 1.1-kilometre loop and then the full 5-kilometre lap four times, the same lap the 5k and 10k use. The lap winds through woodland and meadow in the west and swings round the open fields of the park on a long arc in the east.
The organiser describes the course as flat but warns of bumpy and muddy sections. Because the half marathon starts at 9:30 and the 5k and 10k at 10:00, the course fills with shorter-distance runners from the second lap on; runners with laps to go keep left when passing the start and finish.
Pacing Strategy
On a flat lapped course, even pacing is the key. Use the opening loop to settle in and find your rhythm on the first full lap. On wet or muddy stretches it pays to ease off briefly rather than lose energy slipping, and from the third lap on the race belongs to whoever can hold their pace.
