Both routes start and finish at the Canal Place stage, running out and back along what feels like a well-contained course. The half marathon heads out first, with the shorter race following shortly after, so there is some overlap in the morning's energy. The race benefits the county animal shelter, and that purpose is clearly what drives it.
