About the race
Now in its fourth year, Run the Seasons at Cowdray Estate is a four-event trail series organised by Cowdray and Raw Energy Pursuits across 2026 and 2027 at Cowdray Estate, Midhurst (GU29 0AJ), West Sussex. The series comprises Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer events on these dates: 10 October 2026, 23 January 2027, 10 April 2027 and 25 June 2027. Some events coincide with local activities such as Apple Day, Burns Night and the Cowdray Cheese Festival.
Distance options and age categories include:
- 3 km Kids Run, 6 to 11 years
- 5 km Junior Run, 12 to 15 years
- 5 km and 10 km, 15 years and over
- 10 mile, 18 years and over
There are CaniRun options and a separate kids series that previously attracted about 250 participants. Series ranking uses a points system with each entrant's top three results counting toward overall standings. Series prizes are awarded for the 5 km and 10 km categories with luxury hampers for male and female series winners; there are also series prizes for the 3 km kids races and CaniRun categories. There is no series prize for 10 mile entrants because that distance runs only in Autumn and Spring. Individual seasonal races also have prizes. Ages are based on age on race day.
Additional details for 2026/27 include a 15% discount for entering three or four races in the same order, a set of four linking medals, and free photographs. Well behaved dogs are welcome in CaniRun races. Registration closes 25 June 2027. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
