Terrain & Elevation
The course covers a genuine mix of surfaces, with gravel (48%) and trail (39%) being the most common and neither clearly dominating. The terrain is highly fragmented, switching roughly every kilometre. This demands constant mental engagement and limits the ability to build a sustained rhythm from surface consistency alone. The longest unbroken stretch is 7.4 km of gravel. Uphills are predominantly on trail (63% of ascending sections). Descents are mainly on gravel (71% of descending sections).
Morland Marathon has 21.9 km of gravel / track, this is in the top 29% of all our races.
