TRA Permit application in progress.....

Timings:  Collect your race numbers from 18:30 inside the Plough & Harrow.  Mass start at 19:00.

Good news x 2:  The best fancy dressed runner choosen by our panel of amateur (at best) judges win a post run meal at the pub!  There's a beer/wine/cola/coffee for all runners at the finish for you on us.

Bad news x 2!  Those not taking part in Halloween fancy dress incur a 5 minute time penalty.....that's one min per mile!  Non afflitated England Athletics or Trail Runners Association runners pay an additional £2 levi.

This is a self navigated event following Strava GPX on your phone or watch. (In the reverse direction of the Friston Forest 5 route below.....updated strava link in the correct anti-clockwise direction will be posted nearer the time.)

There will be a written narrative to assist you to download from our website should you need it and a tail runner sweeping the course.  Majority of the run is in the countryside including forest, farm tracks and downlands.

What you need:  Head torch, mobile phone (ICE) and ideally trail running shoes under your Halloween themed fancy dress.

What you get:  Race number and timed, a halloween themed finishers medal and when you hand your race number in behind the bar you get a pint/wine/hot drink or soft drink in return! 

The venue we are using has a great menu for pre or post run food.....

Event is timed but is aimed more at being a fun adventure in the dark then a competition.

As this is a self sufficent event, please take any other provisions with you, such as warm clothing etc.  (Layers work best for me as the conditions can vary from one side of the route to the other!)  There are a lot of hills, so you will warm up!

(18 years and older only as we are using a licensed premises as our start /finish venue.)

Please post or send any photographs that you take before, during or after tackling the route to add to our social media outlets via Facebook messenger or tag us on Instagram.

Please note that parking spaces are limited so please car share as much as you can.

(In the unlikely event or snow/ice, the event maybe be postponed by a year.)
