  • The childrens' 2k event will start after the 5k and 10k runs have finished.  This will allow parents to run in the earlier events, then watch their children in the on-field event.  We would encourage you to stay to cheer the final 10k and 5k finishers in, before watching our stars of the future!

 

Route:

  • The 10k and 5k routes are multi-terrain loops incorporating local footpaths, tracks, fields and road sections.  There are a few stiles and kissing gates along the way.  Please follow all instructions given by the marshals, especially on the road sections.  The marshals are there to ensure your safety - if they ask to you to stop due to oncoming traffic please do so.  The marshals will not be stopping traffic - only runners.

  • These routes are both challenging and undulating, with a few hilly sections!  However you can enjoy spectacular views of the Hampshire countryside and the 10k ends with a fantastic forest downhill to the finish.

  • Please close any unmanned gates behind the last runner as you pass through.

  • HEADPHONES ARE NOT PERMITTED ON EITHER ROUTE.

  • WARNING: These are multi-terrain cross-country routes and as such, the terrain is uneven, muddy in places and in the event of bad weather, some areas may be slippery.  All entrants should wear appropriate footwear with laces securely tied and take care at all times, following warning signs and markers and following any instructions given by marshals.
