SUMMARY:TrailFest - Cannock Chase Forest - Half Marathon
DESCRIPTION:Event Summary\n\n\n\n\nTuesday\, October 1\, 2024\n\n\n\n7:00 PM  9:00 PM\n\n\n\nCanncok Chase\, WS15 2UQ\n\n\n\n\nWhere is it?\n\n\n\nBirches Valley Forest Centre at Cannock Chase\, Staffordshire\, WS15 2UQ. The What 3 Words location is here. It is managed by Forestry England. \n\n\n\nParking is £6 for 2 hours and £9 for 3 hours and functions on ANPR. You can pay by card or coin. \n\n\n\nWe are hopeful we’ll be able to secure an event parking rate at a much reduced rate. This will be confirmed closer to the event. \n\n\n\nThe nearest train stations Rugeley Trent Valley\, and Rugeley Town\, are both approximately 2 miles away \n\n\n\nIf you want to see what the venue is like watch the venue preview here. \n\n\n\nWon’t it be dark?\n\n\n\nWe hope so! You need a head or chest to torch to run in this event. No torch no run. \n\n\n\nOur friends from Petzl will be with us so you can test out the best head torches around on the night. If you’ve got a cheap headtorch from Amazon\, you’ll be able to tell the difference immediately. We’ll have more to announce on this closer to the event. \n\n\n\nWho are Petzl?\n\n\n\nPetzl are the industry leader in high quality head torches. We’re very lucky to be hosting some of their “Night Runner” events. We’ve got 1 at Cannock Chase Forest and 2 at Salcey Forest this winter. \n\n\n\nThere is a reason the top ultra runners in the world use their head torches\, when you need the trail lit up they are simply the best. When trail running at night you want to make sure youyr head torch wont let you down and your Petzl wont. \n\n\n\nThey’ll be at the event with their demo kit for you to try on before\, during or after the event. \n\n\n\nCan I run with my dog?\n\n\n\nYes!! \n\n\n\nWe’ve held many night time 10k’s with canicross and it’s been great success. We request that your dog be lit up (lights on it’s harness rather than wrapping the dog in Christmas lights!)\, you keep your leads short and be considerate of the other runners. We’ll start the canicross runners off a couple of minutes before the main field. Please read our general canicross rules here. \n\n\n\nWe’ll confirm the exact timings for this closer to the event but it is likely the canicross start time will be around 18:50. \n\n\n\nPlease make sure you enter the Canicross race when you click on the enter button above. \n\n\n\nCourse description\n\n\n\nGround conditions will depend very much on the weather closer to the event. It is predominantly on crushed stone however\, with tree detritus the ground can become a bit slippy and mucky\, you’ll never be in ankle deep mud though. There are a few sections on more exposed grass paths\, trail shoes are advised. The route is fully marked and effectively a 2 lap course. Cannock Chase is hilly!

SUMMARY:THAMES TRAIL ULTRA
DESCRIPTION:A 47-MILE POINT-TO-POINT ALONG ENGLAND’S LONGEST RIVER\n\n\n\nEVENT SUMMARY:\n\n\n\nWHENSaturday 19th October 2024 Registration from 07:00. Start 08:15. \n\n\n\nENTRY FEE£67.00 (includes a tracker) \n\n\n\nThis demanding run along the Thames is one of the most popular events in the British ultra-running calendar. \n\n\n\nPreviously known as the Thames Trot\, the event takes in 47 miles from Iffley in Oxfordshire to Henley-on-Thames. \n\n\n\nOur runners will enjoy the company of England’s largest river as it makes its way past ever-changing scenery\, beautiful houses and traditional rowing clubs. Expect everything from tarmac paths to muddy trails on this interesting and challenging course. \n\n\n\nThe run follows both the Thames Path and Ridgeway National Trails\, so entrants should be careful not to forget the words ‘National Trail’ rather than simply reading Thames Path. \n\n\n\nStarting around three miles south of Oxford\, the race heads from Hawkwell House Hotel down to Iffley Lock and across the river. It then follows the towpath through the picturesque towns and villages of the region to Henley-on-Thames. \n\n\n\nThere will be a new race finish for 2024 at the YMCA Y Centre\, in Lawson Road\, Henley-on-Thames. This will mean runners will be able to access showers\, hot food and drinks\, and changing facilities at the end of the race – more details can be found here. \n\n\n\nWe are proud to say that this race is an Ultra-Trail du Mont Blanc index race. \n\n\n\nIF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS\, PLEASE CALL 07989850170.

SUMMARY:Chepstow Steeplechase - 10KM\, 5KM & 3KM Mini Run
DESCRIPTION:The Chepstow Steeplechase is a super fun day out\, all about climbs\, crawls\, water and mud! These events are for everyone. You don’t need to be fit to take part.
