The course is undulating with short - medium uphills and a fast downhill leading into the final flat straight and onto the Lyttelton Recreation Reserve. The race format is a chasing start, which aims to create a mass finish by the slowest runners heading off first and the faster runners chasing them home.

The event is hosted by the Methodist Harriers club.
