Event Overview:
Enjoy the best of autumn with this incredible course through the woods and let the supportive atmosphere of your fellow runners carry you to the finish. This chip-timed event, means all runners can get an accurate PB at this beautiful location. The race is open to runners of all abilities, from experienced athletes to social runners who want to try a challenging off-road course in a beautiful location.
Course Overview:
It is a single-lap run through the lovely woodlands of Limpsfield Common and the High Chart of Surrey and Kent. Most of the land is owned by the the Titsey Estate or National Trust. The course is almost entirely off-road along tracks, footpaths and bridleways, with a brief 200m stretch along a country lane. The first two kilometres are flat(ish), followed by some quite stiff drags (through lovely autumnal woodlands!) as you climb onto the beautiful, peaceful, wooded plateau of the High Chart, but no steep hills.
After the first water stop at kilometre 4.5 there is a short loop through the woods that brings you back to the same water stop at kilometre 6. After that you can concentrate on enjoying a fast run back, dropping down off the Chart for the run home. The finish is on the same bridleway that you ran along at the start.
