Event overview

An exciting series of off-road relay races, with a twist. They will be in the dark, with runners using head-torches to illuminate their way on the trails. At each event, teams will run 4 legs of 2 'country' miles but the courses will vary in difficulty. The routes will be entirely off-road and use a variety of terrain, including hard-packed paths, woodland trails and grass. They will be well marked and have marshals at key points. Team relays are renowned for creating a great atmosphere and being lots of fun for runners of all levels. So, with the added exhilaration of running at night, these races promise to be really exciting.
