Challenge yourself on this varied 5K course at The Epic! You'll start with the 1K loop around two scenic lakes, perfect for warming up. Then, the route kicks it up a notch with a break off behind the Grand Lawn to three gradually ascending hills - nothing too steep, but enough to give your legs a good workout.

As you continue behind The Epic, you'll reach the halfway point marked by a water station. This is your turnaround spot, so grab a quick drink before heading back. On the return leg, as you approach the Grand Lawn you cut right to repeat the initial lake loop. This familiar terrain is a great opportunity to pick up your pace if you have energy left.

This course offers a mix of flat areas and mild inclines, making it suitable for both experienced runners looking to test their speed and casual participants who prefer a steady walk. The route is well-marked and starts and finishes at the same location for convenience.

Whether you're aiming for a personal best or just enjoying the outdoors, this 5K provides a satisfying challenge without being overly difficult. Come prepared for a bit of a push, but know that with a positive attitude, this course is conquerable by all!

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
