For anyone who has been at an SVN event in the last 5 or 6 years will most likely have met the awesome (if rather hairy) runner that is Paul Commons. Now Paul is an epic level runner, has run more with SVN than anyone and is known for being a very happy runner... and his famous catchphrase of "When your miling you're smiling" so we thought it would be nice to have an event to encourage the smiling and as a tribute to the mighty Paul!
Spring is a lovely season at Ranscombe and all being well the woods will be heavy with bluebells and many other spring flowers
The course isn't flat but when you experience running round this beautiful rural reserve on rolling chalk downland trail amidst an array of wildflowers, wildlife and views over North Kent and the Medway (it's a minute from the M2 Google Map) you'll understand why it's worth the climbs.
