Wild & Mild Night Run
The Wild & Mild Night Run is a night trail event based at South Brent Old School Community Centre in South Brent, UK. The event offers two marked courses across trail and open moorland.
- 9 miles trail and open moorland
- 5 miles trail and open moorland
The route is marked but participants are recommended to bring a device with the route and to consult OS maps. The event features a King and Queen of the Night who act as a beacon for other runners, with a prize for the first runner who beats the King or Queen.
Catering at the venue includes warm food, teas, coffees and muffins served by Really Wild Coffee. After the run, runners can listen to live music and share a sauna at the Old School Community.
9 mile route description: the first three miles are mainly uphill following the river to Shipley Bridge with one or two brief descents. A tarmac section follows before the course goes onto Dartmoor, turning right at the Avon Dam, crossing below Abbot’s Way and heading southeast. The route emerges near a boundary fence close to the head of the Harbourne, exits the moor near Dockwell farm, and returns via Brent Hill and Lydia Bridge.
5 mile route description: the course starts at the South Brent Community Centre and follows the 9 mile line toward Shipley Bridge. At that point 5 mile runners turn right uphill. The route is hilly cross terrain mainly on tarmac and paths and returns to the race headquarters via Didworthy. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
