Liverpool

Liverpool's running is dominated by flat, fast courses through the city and along the Mersey waterfront; the bank runs into Sefton Park are local staples. Cyclists head south to the Wirral and Cheshire hills for real climbing—the Southport CC 10 and Southport CC 15 are popular local time trials, while the Chester RC 25 reaches into rolling terrain 40km away. The city itself sits at sea level on the Mersey estuary, making it a sprinter's territory for running but forcing serious cyclists inland within 20km.
