Race Guide
Wimbledon Adventure Trail Series: race 3

Date / Time

Length

7.80 miles (12.6 km)

Description

DATES FOR 2015 SERIES: 1ST Wednesday evenings of May, June and July. i.e 6th, 3rd and 1st.

Next Years Race Series

We are wondering what form next year series should take.

Exactly the same i.e. all slightly different and the final race longer or all three races same as race 2 i.e all the most popular 5 mile route? First race shorter at 4 miles? Is Wednesday the best evening?

All suggestins welcome. Please mail me any comments or suggestions at andy.bickerstaff@goodrunguide.co.uk

Good Run Guide brings you the third of three Wednesday Evening trail races based on one of our recommended running routes through scenic and sometimes challenging parts of Wimbledon Common. It offers a mixture of adventure, fun and challenge all set within an area of calm and tranquility that feels miles away from the urban sprawls of South West London. Large free car park at the start.

Each finisher receives a mug, chocolate bar and fruit. There are series and individual medals/prizes.

Race 3 is a challenging two lap 7.8 miles long course and features include tackling the boggy Rifle Butts, running alongside bubbling Beverly Brook, climbing the tricky 'Toast Rack'. If you thought Wimbledon Common was boring, prepare to be surprised.
