On a fully signed course, using our bespoke fluorescent directional markers, runners leave Winchester Athletics Track under cover of darkness. With headtorches lighting the way, you'll head out of the City of Winchester and onto the South Downs Way.
Runners will climb steadily up towards Cheesefoot Head, where panoramic views of the night sky will really add to the sense of adventure. Running across Fawley Down, with the stars above and city lights below, runners will complete a circular loop before coming back down Cheesfoot Head and heading out onto the MOD land at Deacons Hill.
Here you'll meet the 11km runners as you both join the Pilgrims Trail and make your way back towards Winchester and St Catherines Hill. Now it's a run along the Itchen Way as you follow the river back into the the City and the finish line.
Routes are fully marked with well-stocked feed stations and a bespoke medal awaits you at the finish!
