Event overview

The routes we have mapped are intended to test you. With 3 route options to choose from, there's something for everyone. The trails will lead you up and over undulating hills with panoramic views across the National Park. Stunning winding trails take you past the River Itchen and through some awesome woodland before you head back to Cheesefoot Head. This route is fast and hard-packed so we may even see some PBs and new course records set. Please note, there is no outpost on the Short route. With easy access from London, it makes this Hampshire route a must for any trail lover out there. Please reference the below image which shows the entrance to the event area, via the A272. There will be no access via the A31. Please follow parking signage and race marshals who will direct you once you are on site.

This event is part of The Maverick Hampshire Trail.

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.
