It can also be used to show
both the distance and the route by road to each race.
There are two ways in which you can control the preferences.
Way 1 allows you to use the length of the race
to control which races appear.
Way 2 allows you to use the location of the race
to control which races appear.
It also enables you to arrange for the table to include
both the distance and the route by road to each race.
If you use these ways to control what appears in the table,

1. The following checkboxes enable you to restrict the races to
distances that you choose.
2. Below there are two drop-down menus.
If you wish, choose a home, say Oxford,
and choose a distance, e.g., 80 miles.
If you do this, a new button labelled show races up to 80M from Oxford
will appear.
If you click this button,
the table of races will be restricted to races

'this 10K is on country lanes in the Chilterns - it starts from the village green in Woodcote, goes downhill along lanes through woods to Goring - at 5K, it goes up the killer hill that is outside Goring's Fire Station, the same hill that is used for the start of the Goring 10K - there is then a 1K respite but this is followed by a long climb back to Woodcote - elsewhere on the web, it's said to be a "tough road race, 5K downhill followed by 5K uphill" and that describes it very well'.

The Goring 10K takes place on undulating rural lanes and footpaths but there are also three or four hills. The race starts at the bottom of a hill outside Goring's Fire Station. The hill climbs from 60m to 95m and lasts about 1K. The race then uses country lanes, 1.5K of the Ridgeway through South Stoke, more country lanes to re-visit the highest point of the course about 1.5K from the end. So you then go down the 1K hill you did at the start but you run pass the start to do a few meanderings around a housing estate before finishing on the field behind the School. Tip: if you're wishing to finish fast but are tired at the end of the race, these meanderings can be a bit confusing. So the last 0.5K are worth checking out when you are warming up - if you wish to do this, have a look at the course map. A small section of the route is the same as that of the Woodcote 10K.

"Race HQ is at the Spiceball Leisure Centre, Cherwell Drive." The course is a shaped like a letter P, the out and back bit being about 5M long. This out and back bit starts along narrow paths in Spiceball Park. It continues on a footpath that accompanies the A423. The first hill is alongside this main road at about 1.25M. Just after 2M, the course leaves the main road and ventures into the countryside visiting the villages of Little Bourton, Great Bourton and Cropredy. At 5M, the circular 5M bit of the P starts. Here there is a short hill and at 6M there is a longer hill. At the top, you reach a village called Claydon. In my opinion, the nicest part of the course is between 6.5M and 8M: so peaceful on a quiet, narrow lane that crosses the Oxford Canal (between Claydon and Appletree). Unfortunately, this tranquillity is shattered by a significant hill at 8M (and in the future by being only 1K from 225 mph trains on the
HS2 railway line). Just after the 10M marker, you complete the circular bit of the course. Just after 11M you meet the last hill which is on the approach to Great Bourton. You know it's coming as you went down it on the way out!

"Venue is the Postlip Hall." "This is a tough and hilly multi-terrain race. It starts near to the Postlip Hall Tithe Barn and covers the highest points of the Cotswold hills on Cleeve common, before heading into the countryside and returning to Postlip via the Belas Knap neolithic burial mound." In previous years the course was 14.25M but in 2024 it was shortened to nearer 13M.
This Facebook post says "the race will continue on Cleeve Common and instead of turning right at Wheeler gate it will continue past the pylons and leave the common as usual at Wontley gate - after the race goes past Belas Knap and continues into the field the course will turn left at the end instead of right and will follow the Cotswold Way to Postlip Hall". My guess is that this 13M route will be used in 2025. Here is a
map for the old route, i.e., the 14,25M route.

"We sold out in 2023 and 2024 so don't hang about to secure your entry." The event village is in the University Parks and the start is on Broad Street. "The fast and flat Oxford Half has a perfect route for both newbies and PB chasers." "The course takes runners through the pristine, winding streets of historic Oxford. The route begins in the city centre and passes through the stunning sites of Old Marston village, the River Cherwell, Oxford University's impressive Lady Margaret Hall, before finally finishing on Parks Road." "The Oxford Half is currently not UKA licensed, but it will still be officially measured and exceed all the operational standards."
