About the race
The event is a guided group trail run at High Lodge in Thetford Forest, Brandon, Suffolk (IP27 0AF). The run covers 10 km on woodland trails and is organised by ESCAPE trails. The stated cost for attendance is £12.50 and parking for attendees is charged at £3.
Groups are arranged by estimated fitness times provided at sign up, for example a rough 5k, 10k or half marathon time, but participants will not be expected to run at that exact pace. All runs are led at a conversational pace so the focus is on enjoying the scenery rather than racing. Participants may be asked to run slower than their usual pace and might not be the slowest person in their group.
The route terrain will be mostly flat with very few obstacles, ranging from hard packed trails to single track through woods. The event is described as suitable for runners who have been running on road and are taking first steps into trail running, or for those who want a relaxed group run.
Recommended equipment includes trail shoes if available, or road shoes if not, a waterproof jacket and sun cream as needed, at least 500 ml of water and snacks. The event allows approximately two hours and includes an optional cool down and stretching session after the run. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
