Race The Light at Wendover Woods
Race The Light is a trail running event held at Wendover Woods that raises funds for the Chilterns Neuro Centre. The event base is at Wendover Woods, Upper Icknield Way, Aston Clinton, HP22 5NQ. All proceeds are donated to the centre, which supports people affected by multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s and stroke.
The event offers three routes that take place entirely on trails with no road crossings or gates. The courses are fully marked and marshalled and use good quality footpaths with a mix of climbs and longer descents. A water stop is provided at roughly the halfway point of the 10K. Facilities include toilets in the main building, a bag drop at registration, medical support and discounted parking in the main car park.
