Pint & Pork Scratchings 5

Pint & Pork Scratchings 5

Pint & Pork Scratchings 5 is the fifth edition of a charity trail run held on Tuesday 9th June 2026 to raise money for The Brain Tumour Charity. The route starts and finishes in Epperstone, Nottinghamshire, and covers 5 miles of undulating trails. The course includes a short climb within the first mile described as a "mini" hill that requires a brief increase in effort.

The event returns to The Cross Keys pub as its base and does not permit dogs this year. Entry numbers have been increased to 375 runners, with 150 participants recorded at the time of the listing. The published entry fee is £14. Entries open on Thursday 4 December 2025 and close on Friday 22 May 2026.

Organizers have altered the prize format from standard age group awards to a set of prizes placed at specific finishing positions. Prizes include Up & Running vouchers for first male and female, recognition of course records for male and female times, a crate of beer awarded to the club with the most entrants, and assorted running-related prizes. The event also counts toward the points tally in the HP Road League. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
