‘Mostly flat... until the gigantic hill’: Trail races for runners of all abilities
The challenging race covers open chalk grassland, fields, footpaths and bridleways across the National Trust’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Organiser Mark Cornell said: “The first three miles is on the top of the Downs and it is mostly flat.

“Around the top of the Downs the route is very scenic with some fantastic views in places.”
The event starts and finishes outside of the Chilterns Gateway Centre at 10am. Entry is £12 - less for affiliated club runners.
