Wild Deer Trail Runs at High Lodge

The inaugural High Lodge Wild Trail Runs take place in the forest of Thetford, located between Cambridge and Norwich. This event offers participants the opportunity to run through woodland trails on a fully supported course. Two distinct distances are available during this event:

  • 5 km (minimum age 11 years)
  • 10 km (minimum age 15 years)

Timing services are provided by Timing Up North, ensuring all participants receive live chip-timed results for their chosen distance. The course is designed to accommodate different experience levels, from individuals participating in their first trail run to more experienced runners.
