"Collect race number on the day." Although the organiser's web page says "entries will only be allowed on the day if the race is not full", be aware that it was full on Jan 12th in 2020 and by Feb 9th in 2018. "Venue is the Bridgewater Monument, Ashridge Estate Visitor Centre." The Estate is NE of Tring and NW of Berkhamsted. "The boundary trail route follows well-marked paths around the beautiful Ashridge Estate." "The race this year will be run in an anti-clockwise direction." So first it heads towards Northchurch Common, then to Little Gaddesden, Ringshall and Ivinghoe Beacon before heading back to the start. "The only deviation from the official boundary route is that entrants will go to the top of Ivinghoe Beacon." "Gift."

"Venue is the Spiceball Leisure Centre, Cherwell Drive." This web page has details about Covid-19 changes. It includes "the race will be run in line with UKAthletics and RunBritain Covid-19 guidance and frameworks". The course is a shaped like a letter P, the out and back bit being about 5M long. This out and back bit starts along narrow paths in Spiceball Park. It continues on a footpath that accompanies the A423. The first hill is alongside this main road at about 1.25M. Just after 2M, the course leaves the main road and ventures into the countryside visiting the villages of Little Bourton, Great Bourton and Cropredy. At 5M, the circular 5M bit of the P starts. Here there is a short hill and at 6M there is a longer hill. At the top, you reach a village called Claydon. In my opinion, the nicest part of the course is between 6.5M and 8M: so peaceful on a quiet, narrow lane that crosses the Oxford Canal (between Claydon and Appletree). Unfortunately, this tranquillity is shattered by a significant hill at 8M (and in the future by being only 1K from 225 mph trains on the HS2 railway line). Just after the 10M marker, you complete the circular bit of the course. Just after 11M you meet the last hill which is on the approach to Great Bourton. You know it's coming as you went down it on the way out! "M markers." "Chip timing." "Medal." "The Paul Bithell Memorial Fun Runs will start shortly after the main race has left the park, so around 1040. These runs are either one lap (approximately 1M) or 2 laps (approximately 2M) on traffic free park courses." Here's a link to the race information.

"Collect race number and chip on the day." "Venue is the Bourdillon Field behind Goring Primary School." "If entries are still available on the day (please note we have sold out in previous years), they can be bought in the school PE Hall." The Goring 10K takes place on undulating rural lanes and footpaths but there are also three or four hills. The race starts at the bottom of a hill outside Goring's Fire Station. The hill climbs from 60m to 95m and lasts about 1K. The race then uses country lanes, 1.5K of the Ridgeway through South Stoke, more country lanes to re-visit the highest point of the course about 1.5K from the end. So you then go down the 1K hill you did at the start but you run pass the start to do a few meanderings around a housing estate before finishing on a field behind the School. Tip: if you're wishing to finish fast but are tired at the end of the race, these meanderings can be a bit confusing. So the last 0.5K are worth checking out when you are warming up - if you wish to do this, have a look at the course map. A small section of the route is the same as that of the Woodcote 10K. "Chip timing." "T-shirt is extra."

"Collect race number and chip on the day." "Early Bird discount available until Apr 15th." "This will be the 31st Dymock Half Marathon and the launch of the Dymock 5M road race." "Venue is the Dymock Cricket Club, The Pound." "From the field in front of the pavilion, all runners head toward the centre of Dymock. Runners swing South out of the village through small country lanes, until reaching the M50 bridge at Four Oaks, where the Half heads left and the 5M turns right towards Dymock Woods. A quick detour for the Half around Holder's lane deposits us on the Kempley road heading North into Queen's Wood (the epicentre of the famous Daffodil Walk) and into the pretty village of Kempley. Once through Kempley, turning at Kempley New Church, the route tends North on a gradual incline towards Much Marcle, before doubling back past Kempley Old Church and the historic Memorial Oak. A climb to Candle Cottage on the edge of Kempley at the 10M mark, leads to an eastward turn for the final few miles back to Dymock and over the old railway bridge, before a descent back to the Cricket Club. For the 5M, following the right turn just before the Motorway bridge, runners follow the undulating road through Dymock Woods. The route continues on the lane towards Normansland and a pair of fast straights to Dymock. Then the final part takes runners over the old railway bridge, past the Beauchamps Arms and a return to the Cricket Club." "M markers." "Chip timing." "Medal."

"The race will start and finish from the school's walled garden, heading out along a paved track before joining a wooded bridleway. From there we will race through woods, across open fields skirting around Highmoor Village and Witheridge Hill before joining a stretch of quiet road - this will not be closed. A long steady climb will take us up to English Farm, where you may even spot some of their famous Longhorn cattle. A footpath will take us back towards Nettlebed, including one last kicker hill (which happens to be a strava section for the more competitive runner!)."

Here are my notes from when I ran it a few years ago: 'this 5M is on rural roads in/near the outskirts of Banbury - there is a shortcut behind the school across its playing fields to the start - the start is in Browning Road which is in a housing estate off Bloxham Road - at the 1M marker, there is a slight hill - there is a big hill before the 3M marker and a slight dip at 3.6M - it is flat from 4M onwards and there is a slight decline to the finish which is near to where Bloxham Road joins Queensway.' This course map is useful as it not only has the route of the race (marked in red) but it also has the walking route from the Race HQ to the start (marked in blue) and the walking route from the finish to the Race HQ (marked in green).

The Half-Marathon Race and the Long and Short Walks will be taking place on Jun 11th 2022. The Half-Marathon Run will now be a morning start. Full details will be finalised soon.". The Otmoor Challenge is a half marathon along footpaths and roads around the Otmoor. Together with a 5M walk and a 13.1M walk, it forms one of the events of Horton-cum-Studley's Otmoor Day. "The Otmoor Challenge starts and finishes on the playing field where a traditional village fete is an added attraction for friends, family and your supporters while you are on the Run." If you enter in advance, your "race number must be collected from the Pre-Registration Desk" which is in one of the tents usually on the left-hand side (NE side) of the playing field. "The good news is that the first 11 miles are virtually flat. The course begins with a mass start of all runners on the playing field, and then has a short 400 metre road stretch before entering a track. This then leads across fields on footpaths, followed by farm tracks before rejoining the road near Murcott. Runners then have a fast road run through the villages of Murcott, Fencott, Charlton and Oddington before a mix of tracks and road to Noke and then there is the 'never-ending field' leading, at the 11 mile point, to a long climb up the hill to Beckley. There is then a steep upwards track and a welcome downhill footpath through fields and woods to rejoin the road for a final fast mile back to Horton cum Studley and the finish line."

Maybe it'll return to its usual course and venue (near the Open University) in 2022.

"Venue is The Brocas." "This is a completely unique 10K trail race. An out and back course from Eton and Windsor, you'll be taking on not just other runners, but a target pace boat full of spectators that will be tracking you and trying to beat you back to the finish line. All runners set off together in a traditional race format, with a difference, because just yards from where you start on the Brocas fields in Eton, the 5 Thames Cruise boats will be starting too and they'll be full of your friends and family members ready to cheer you on, as you try to beat the boat." "The 5 boats will be clearly labelled as 40/50/55/60/70 mins respectively. So when entering, it's important for you to try and decide which boat you'll be taking on, based on your predicted finish time over the course. Faster runners will be looking to beat the 40 min boat, and would therefore want any supporters to be on-board that one, whereas people running closer to 50 or 60 mins, would be chasing those boats." "For runners of all abilities." I don't know how accurate this map is. "Technical T-shirt, medal." "We'll also be adding an optional Kids 1M Fun Run held before the main race (with enough time for them to finish and make it onboard the spectator boats)."
