Let it Stow - Half Trail Marathon

Let it Stow is a festive themed half marathon that follows a well signed 13.1 miles trail route through Mid Suffolk countryside. The course uses established footpaths and quiet country lanes and passes through woodland and meadows. Runners should be aware there are a number of road crossings on the route; wayfinding will use arrows and hi‑vis tape.

The event is cupless. Fresh drinking water is available to refill bottles at the start and finish but no single use cups are provided. Trail running shoes are essential. The race has a 3.5 hour cut off and an age limit of 17 years.

Included for competitors are a mince pie, trophies for the top three male and top three female finishers, toilets at the start and finish, professional photography and manual timing. An optional eco friendly finisher medal is offered. Toilets and refreshments will be available inside the clubhouse.

Race start and finish are at Stowmarket Football Club, Greens Meadow, Bury Road, Stowmarket IP14 1JQ. All cars parked in the venue car park are left at the owner’s risk and organisers accept no responsibility for loss or damage. Race numbers are collected at the registration desk on the day and will not be posted in advance.

Medical assistance is provided during the event but competitors enter at their own risk. Photographs and video from the event may be used by the organiser and partners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
