The 5K ‘The Stanton Stile Hop’ (now Gate Crasher), is the race that started it all off in 2018. This stunning course will take runners on a 5km loop on a mixture of terrain from beautiful fields to stunning woodland trails with a few quiet country lanes. As the event name implies, there are number of small gates on the course which all runners will need to negotiate as part of the event.
The 10K multi terrain race is a beautiful extension of the 5K route. At the 4km way point of the 5K route, you will be diverted off on to an additional 5km section where you will re-join the original 5K route. Again, the route is mostly on a mixture of field, woodland and farm track with a little bit of quiet country lane.
Both the 5K and 10K race will be started in the same location.
The programme includes a free short fun run for children for under 9 year olds. This will take part on field and will be approx. 1000mtr out and back course.
