THE RADAR LOOP
Designed for · runners
Distance · about 10 km
Elevation · 122 m
THE VIBE ☼
A good all rounder 10km that loops round the Radar Station. Good one for going up and down the gears.
This is The Norwich Road Loop but just pushed a little further.
THE TEXTURE ⁙
Mainly tarmac. Footpath. A small section of woodland.
THE FLOW 〜
Its hard to get too comfortable on this one as the hills just keep coming. Remember what goes up must come down - there are plenty of long downhill spells to recover.
When you see the Radar Station there’s just a few kms to go.

THE HEART ♡
The rolling hills will make you work hard. The quiet lanes, the company of partridges and the shady dip through the woods all make it worth the effort.

THE UNWRITTEN RULE
Wise to take the down hills as recovery rather than excuses to sprint - your legs will thank you later
