Colworth Hare and Tortoise Run

Sharnbrook, United Kingdom • 30 Nov 2025

Event details

The Colworth Hare and Tortoise Run is a multi-lap event held at Colworth House Sports and Social Club in Sharnbrook, Bedfordshire (MK44 1LB). The course is around the Colworth Estate in North Bedfordshire and consists of 26.3 miles run over five laps. The route uses gently undulating trail and unclassified road, with some woodland paths that have uneven surfaces and roots. Some sections of path are narrow, and this contributes to an entry limit.
