Lincolnshire Farm Run

The Lincolnshire Farm Run is a six hour timed circuit event held at Thonock Lane Farm, Gainsborough DN21 3HP. The course uses a compact mud surface around farm fields and requires no navigation. Each lap measures 2.5 km.

There is a table at the end of each lap offering water, squash, fizzy drinks and a variety of food. Toilets are located at the farm toilet block a short distance from the course. Participants may start their final lap before the six hour cutoff.

Free car parking is provided in a field next to the event. A small carpark at the farm entrance is reserved for farm shop and cafe customers; event parking is in the adjacent field. After finishing, participants receive a bespoke Lincolnshire Farm Run themed medal and a goody bag.

The event is licensed by the TRA and is run under UKA Athletics rules. Maximum permitted distances under those rules vary by age group. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
