About the race

Blended Trails runs a programme of free guided trail runs for members of the Blended Trails community. Membership is free and gives access to run invites, route updates, Trail Mail and event news. Routes are crafted in south east England and are hosted at venues with private access trails.

Guided runs are led by a Run Crew leader with a tail runner to ensure no one is left behind. The pace is described as friendly and social. Runs explore new routes and locations and often include a coffee, cake or pub stop afterwards. Advance registration is required for each guided run and places are limited to 20.

A dedicated Guided Runs WhatsApp group is used to share meeting information, route and run-day updates, answer questions and share photos; joining the group does not reserve a place for a run. Blended Trails also operates a Strava club to track runs and share activities; the club has nearly 1,000 members.

Examples of recent or scheduled meeting places and nearby cafes include Manor Farm at West Worldham with South Downs Roastery, Wood Farm with Wood Farm Cafe, and Selborne with LaLuna. Typical route distances are listed below. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
