Organiser's Description
9th February 2025
Please join us for our Winter Charity Trail running event in aid of Farleigh Hospice.
Event address: Charity Farm, Crows Lane, Woodham Ferrers, Essex CM3 8RT. What3words location: boasted.bordering.force
Huge thanks to the Cooper family for allowing us use of the farm to host the event, without this we would not be able to host a winter trail run.
There are 2 routes available, 10km or 13.1 miles (half marathon), mainly on grass, tracks and paths in the beautiful countryside around Woodham Ferrers and nearby villages. These are unmarked, no marshalls, narrative routes where you will be given written instructions to follow (there will be a few bits of tape to help you in trickier places!).
There will be a staggered start, with runners able to set off between 8.30-9.00am. Parking will be open from 8am. There will be no bag drop but parking is close to the start/finish, runners are asked to get ready by their vehicles and are invited to come to the registration desk when they are ready to run. You will be given your written instructions and number, then off you go!
You will be timed in and out - we will do our best to give you accurate timings but it is not chip timed.
There will be aid stations but this is a cupless event, you will need to carry your own cup or drink bottle, there will be NO cups available for you at the aid stations.
Dogs are not permitted.
We will have refreshments at the finish with hot/cold drinks and our usual fantastic selection of home made cakes. Please bring some CASH as donations for this will be most welcome.
Entry cost is £12 for the 10k and £17 for the half marathon, you also have the option to add a medal at a cost of £3.20. Entry Central add a booking fee of 50p or 4% (whichever is greater).
If after entering you are unable to take part no refunds will be given as ALL our entry fees go to Farleigh Hospice, we do hope you understand.
Parking, toilets and handwashing facilities will be available.
Entries close on 6/2/25 or sooner if places sell out.
Thank you for supporting us in raising funds for Farleigh Hospice.
