Event overview
By popular demand, trail races have been added to the weekend schedule of Roadford Lake Swim on Saturday afternoon and Roadford Lake Triathlon on Sunday - to complete the exciting multi-sports weekend for a range of abilities and goals!
The trail races are run in a different direction to the equivalent races in autumn, so although they share many of the same trails, the feel is completely diffferent. There is a 10.5K lap and a 5K lap. The half marathon is two laps of the 10K course.
Younger children are welcome to join the 5K.
There are also 2K and 1K kids races for children aged 3-11. For all kids' races, adults can run with kids for no additional charge.
This event is part of Roadford Lake Trail Races.

Reviews from its sister event:
Fab event - loved it.... thanks for going to such effort to run a brilliant race, the marshalls were awesome! Lucy Poole
Fab race, undulating and challenging and the Marshalls were fab at every station, would thoroughly recommend any race. Helen
This was a really enjoyable race, well marshalled and very friendly in addition to a lovely scenic course. Race information supplied was very good. I would definitely take part again. Christine F
Fantastic and interesting course. My first race in 3 years, very hilly to start but worth it. Very well organised and the communication was excellent on the run up and on the day. Darren T
Had a blast running this race, would highly recommend. Ben G
Great event! Especially with all the dogs running 🙂 Well done to all of the Sportiva team. I appreciated the number of Marshalls who were very positive. Also the course arrows were very clear. Joe L
Really run trail race. Second year taking part and I thoroughly enjoy doing it. Really well marked and plenty of Marshalls, a good mix of ups and downs. Alice N
