Event overview

It takes in the beautiful trails, paths and woodlands of the Cordwell Valley with a little jink over into the neighbouring Linacre Valley for good measure. The route is just over 20 miles and the views from the high ground are terrific. Route conditions range from highly runnable trails and lanes to more involving single track and trods. The route is largely unmarked although we do mark out a couple of the trickier navigation sections. We provide route notes and gpx files for you to download. Additionally you may wish to bring your own paper map as back up and to aid with navigation.

This event is part of Cordwell Colossus.

4 steps to wellbeing
Sleep well

A good night's sleep is an essential foundation for a healthy lifestyle, effective training and weight control.

Train slow

Low-intensity training is easier for you, reduces the risk of injury and helps builds an efficient aerobic system.

Eat natural

Cut out sugar & junk food, reduce carbs, eat natural foods and train your body to burn fat for fuel.

Get outdoors

Fresh air, natural light and reconnecting with nature all help to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
