The Scary Scamper

The Scary Scamper is part of a Halloween race series held at Pengethley Manor, Ross-on-Wye. Entrants choose a distance and have a seven hour limit to complete their chosen target. The event is suitable for walkers and runners.

Distances available:

  • 5k (two laps of the 2.5 km circuit)
  • 10k
  • Half Marathon
  • Marathon
  • Ultra

The course is off road and contained within the grounds of Pengethley Manor. Each lap measures 2.5 km, includes a section with a hill, and passes through two vineyards with a series of ups and downs. The organiser describes the terrain as very tough.

There is a virtual option that can be completed anywhere. Paid virtual entries receive the same type of medal as race finishers; free virtual participation is recorded on the results list but does not include a medal. Virtual medals are posted after run verification and additional postage costs apply for international delivery.

Entry fees are non refundable. Published prices include a standard race entry fee and separate virtual entry tiers. A charity entry option is available at a reduced fee subject to a fundraising requirement. A deferral option is offered for a set fee up to four weeks before the event.
