Admiral McHilly Trail
Chelmsford, United Kingdom • 17 Aug 2025
The Admiral McHilly Trail is a challenging trail running event held in Chelmsford, Essex, featuring an approximately 15-mile course with significant elevation, including over 900 feet of climbing and descent concentrated in the middle section. The race follows a self-navigation format using a written route description, with no course markings or marshals, emphasizing individual navigation skills. A shorter Chelmer Trail option of about 6 miles offers a flatter route through the Chelmer Valley. Both events start from Springfield Cricket Club and provide drink stations, though participants are advised to carry their own refreshments. The event fosters a supportive atmosphere with staggered start times and includes a voucher for refreshments at the venue. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
