About the race
Bewl Water Autumn is a bi-annual road and trail race series held near the Bewl Water Visitor Centre in Lamberhurst, Kent. The courses follow routes around the reservoir and combine undulating rural wooded trail with sections on quiet country lanes, offering views of the lake for most of the route.
Multiple distance options are available:
- 10 km : out-and-back route with a well marshalled turnaround point.
- Half marathon (13.1 miles) : 0.6 mile loop then one 12.5 mile loop around Bewl.
- Marathon (26.5 miles) : 1 mile loop then two 12.5 mile loops around Bewl.
- Ultra 50 km (31.25 miles) : two 12.5 mile loops then a final 6.25 mile loop around Bewl.
Distances were measured with a Garmin Fenix 6X Pro-Solar watch; the organiser notes that the marathon is slightly longer and that trail line choice can cause small variations in distance. The event page offers course maps, GPX routes, a route video, entrant lists, FAQs, and information about medals. Runners World has rated this event as one of the top 10 races in the U.K. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
