Runners World editorial on the Shere 42k
‘The area is an ideal setting for an offroad trail run,’ says Cain. ‘We staged our firstrace in 2012 with 110 runners and received some really positive feedback. The first event was a 40km race, but we stuck a 2km loop on it over the Greensand Ridge and make it into a full marathon
More Information:
- This is a chip timed event with a clearly marked and marshaled route with maps also available.
- There will be medals and t-shirts for all those taking part including spot prizes and of course special awards for the first in each category.
- We will also have Sam from Pace Therapies at the finish line to ease those aching legs.
