The 4 Calling Birds Run is an off-road event held at Pengethley Manor in Ross-on-Wye. This race is part of a festive series inspired by the 12 Days of Christmas.

The terrain is described as a tough off-road circuit consisting of 2.5 km laps.

Participants have a total of 7 hours to complete their chosen target distance. The event is open to both runners and walkers, provided they finish within the designated time limit.

Available distances include:

  • 5 km (2 laps)
  • 10 km
  • Half Marathon

All registered participants receive a race bib upon arrival on the day of the event. Finishers are awarded a unique medal specific to the 4 Calling Birds theme.
