About the event

Description

Join us on the Somerset Levels for a scenic run on flat, tarmaced roads with very limited traffic.

The route is designed for a wide range of runners, from those chasing a time to those simply wanting a friendly local run with a recorded finish time.

The course is all road and Runners, walkers and jeffers are all welcome.

Medals

Not everyone wants or values a medal, so we’ve made it optional—you can choose to enter with or without one.

Medals often travel a surprisingly long way before reaching you, and we’re mindful of the environmental impact that creates. There’s little benefit in reducing waste in areas like feed stations if we’re not also considering the footprint of items like medals.

By giving you the choice, we can offer greater flexibility while taking a more thoughtful approach to sustainability.

To receive a finisher’s medal, you’ll need to enter by 06th August, that’s the cut-off date for us to place the medal order.
Entries will still remain open after this date, but late entrants will take part without a medal.

Parking for the event is at Sweets Tea Rooms, near the start and finish area. Please car share if possible.
