The MDC is a beautiful yet challenging event, mostly off-road along tracks and footpaths. There is plenty of climbing - over 3000 feet for the 33 mile race. The routes take in some of the finest Wiltshire countryside including:• The Wansdyke Path, Tan Hill Way, White Horse Trail, and Mid Wilts Way with superb views across the Vale of Pewsey.
• West Woods and Gopher Wood, with its amazing wild garlic.
• Two of the highest points in Wiltshire at Knapp Hill and at Tan Hill, where the long and short courses diverge
...and, on the 33 mile route,
• The Kennet & Avon Canal into Devizes
• Roundway Hill and Morgan's Hill
• Cherhill Monument and White Horse
After the two routes rejoin to pass through Avebury, with its pre-historic stone circle and views of Silbury Hill, runners then go via Overton and Fyfield Downs back to Marlborough Leisure Centre for showers and refreshments.
