Join us for the first running of this 10k ish trail race at Wheelbirks Farm in Northumberland.

If you've taken part in the Cow Shed Backyard Ultra, you'll have a rough idea what to expect.

On a mixture of farm field boundaries, forest and woodland trails and some steep technical climbs and descents, this course is a great mixture of terrain.

We will start on the field just outside of the orchard at the back of the cafe, and follow some of the BYU course, but with the added fun of a river crossing and a little bit more up and down.

Registration will be in the main cafe building, where you can grab a coffee/ice cream before the race or a beer after if  you like. The cafe will be serving food as well.

Fingers crossed we get great weather when we can all enjoy the farm, cafe and orchard with a spot of socialising before and after.

 

The route will be fully waymarked, and is ideal for trail novices and experienced runners alike.

Start Time: 7pm

Registration: 5pm-6.30pm

Venue: Wheelbirks Parlour, Stocksfield, Northumberland
