Think you could handle eight races in eight days to take home eight nightmarish medals? Well that's just what's on offer at this year's November Nightmare which will take place 27 October until 3 November at locations in and around Telford.

An intriguingly named event, the November Nightmare is a test of mental as well as physical fitness where participants have a choice of distances – 10K, Half Marathon or Marathon on each of the days. The races take place at three venues over the eight days all within 10 minutes of Coalport and Ironbridge.

Organisers say: "Do you have what it takes to take on the Nightmare? You have the choice of 10K (7 miles on the 2nd weekend), Half (14 miles on the second weekend) or Full Marathon on each day. Here at How Hard Can It Be Events, we will do everything we can to help you achieve your goal.

"We're keen to make this event accessible to all that want to take part so new this year we have a payment plan available so you can spread the cost into manageable payments"

The races are held at Coalport Village Hall, Coalport Railway Line and Lightmoor near Telford and involve multiple laps on country lanes and paths. There are well stocked aid stations to top up the energy levels and the camaraderie between the runners keeps the spirits up as they chip away at the miles.
