Black Rock '5' Race course map

The race starts at the bottom of Harbour Road under the railway viaduct and climbs uphill, turning left onto Pettycur road before following the route to the beach.  Down a small ramp and onto the sand, runners head out to the rock.  Having made their way around the Black Rock competitors retrace their steps back to the beach, up the hill and then down to the start line.   However, the finish line is on South Overgate near the junction with the A921 - meaning a left turn and a final uphill dash complete the race.
