For the avoidance of doubt, today (29 November) is Black Friday. We know it seems like Black Friday for a month already but the actual day has finally arrived. The question is: "Is there a genuine offer out there that can save me some money?"

UK Running Events answers that question and will have you jumping for joy (see above photo) with their limited-time offer of £10 off all their 2025 trail race entries. The offer is valid until midnight on Sunday 1 December 2025 using the code BF10 at the checkout.

So let's check out what UK Running Events offers through their RunRebel Trail Run Series. In January the choices are the Winchester Trail Run 12K or 21K on the 12th or Brighton Trail 10 Mile or 10K on the 19th. February's races are the Queen Elizabeth Country Park 8K, 15K, or 22K and the New Forest North 16K and 21K on the 8th.

March is the busiest month for the RunRebel Trail Series, starting with the New Forest South 10K, 15K and 22K on the 8th. The following weekend it's the Jurassic Express (Swanage) 11K, 17K and 21K and on the 22nd the action moves to Chichester Harbour for another 16K or 21K race. March concludes with a visit to Stansted House, Rowlands Castle in Hampshire for a 10K, 16K or 21K trail run.

The programme continues throughout the year at glorious venues like Harewood House (West Yorkshire), Chatsworth House (Derby Dales), Thames Path (Windsor), South Downs (Goodwood Racecourse), New Forest Central (Brockenhurst), Wittering Beach (Chichester) and the Sussex Downs (Plumpton Racecourse, Lewes).

The Black Friday discount applies to any trail events throughout 2025 but remember the BF10 code expires on Sunday 1 December 2024 at midnight.
