As the race leaves Browns Lane, participants enter quiet leafy lanes with a gentle climb. - following this there is a 400m downhill run which leads into the final climb - the race is challenging but fun at this point which is about 8M into the run. Tamworth Road takes the runners on another downhill section back into the suburbia that is the Coundon area with great views of the city centre skyline - on the home straight the runners will head down Radford Road and reach their goal at the finish line on Hales Street.' In 2019 the 5K was 'a two lap, closed road city centre 5K'. "M markers." In 2017 chip timing was used. "Technical T-shirt, medal." "There is also a Wheelchair 2.5K."

Take a moment to savour the views and catch your breath before you take on the 'Ibstone Kicker'. The course levels as you pass The Millennium Stone and sprint for glory." "The 10K follows that of the 5K until the top of the Ibstone Kicker where it turns to lead out over an ancient field before crossing the Ibstone Road and dropping down into the valley on the other side of the village. It follows tracks through fields and woodlands before climbing back up into Ibstone. You then run through the heart of Ibstone before you drop into the beautiful Parsonage Woods and return, via Grays Lane, to the common and to the finish." "Medal."

This web page says the Series has been cancelled. This is one of a series of races held at Charlton-on-Otmoor, Bletchingdon, Combe, Combe and Kidlington. This web page is using the provisional dates that are given on the Mota-vation web page. Usually there is a considerable discount if you enter the Series and members of some clubs get an even bigger discount if they instead enter through their club. No new entries were taken on the night for any of the 2019 races. In previous years, there were chip timing and spot prizes and you got a memento if you enter the Series. "Venue of the Charlton-on-Otmoor race is the Recreation Ground, High Street." In 2019 this race used the 5.2M course adopted in a hurry in 2018 - it's two laps of the initial circle rather than a figure-of-eight - the figure-of-eight course was 4.0955M long.

The 10K carries on via a bridleway across Appletree Farm and Manor Farm into the village of Clifton. In the village you turn left along a short section of pavement before taking a footpath on the left through Home Farm. This takes you back across the fields and joins the latter part of the 5K route back into Deddington."

"Venue is the Village Sports Ground." "A fantastic cross country 10K and 5K run across the Hertfordshire countryside." Here's a useful description of the 2013 Gaddesden Gallop 10K that appeared in a newsletter of the Tring Running Club - I don't know whether the details are still appropriate: 'The start and finish is in Little Gaddesden and the route goes down the Golden Valley behind Ashridge house, up onto the ridge behind Frithsden, down the Roman road track to Nettleden before climbing up the path on the other side of the valley to the monastery. There is then a couple of kilometres on a flat track to Hudnall before turning back across rutted fields to Little Gaddesden. So if you are familiar with the Boundary Trail or the Dunstable 20, you would know a lot of this route. Not that you needed to know it as the marking and marshals were very good, even holding open the kissing gates as we went round. It was very well organised and has nice and relaxed feel.'

It's mainly off-road: it starts with a long gentle climb along a rutted cart track; then down along rough tarmac; uses a footbridge to bypass a ford (or you can run through!); then there is a narrow footpath that climbs gently up through a wood (where you are warned to watch out for tree roots). The rest of the course is either flat or downhill, again on rough tarmac, on wide bridleways/cart-tracks or on grassy footpaths through fields where there are two stiles. The route also passes a bluebell wood, a magnificently preserved disused railway station and several bridges across the River Test.' "K markers." "Medal."

"The National Arboretum is the perfect location for sporting events, and runners taking part in this race will be able to take in the world renowned tree collection at one of its most beautiful times of year, with spring blooms and flowering trees providing the backdrop to this popular 10K. Perfect for those looking for a challenge in the new year, or veteran runners looking to achieve a new personal best, the course takes participants through the picturesque avenues of the Old Arboretum and into the peaceful tranquillity of the ancient Silk Wood, on largely flat terrain and hard paths." "Chip timing." "Medal."

"The start is in front of the iconic tower of the Hook Norton Brewery, from where runners proceed down Brewery Lane, past The Pear Tree pub and up a gentle hill towards The Sun Inn. A right turn down steep Bell Hill, then up a small incline then level out along Burycroft Road. At the end of this road which is at about the 1M point, there's a staggered crossing. Then the route goes off road to do the most challenging part of the circuit: it's up a steep and rough track, with magnificent views of the brewery and village to your right. The route then climbs up Oatley Hill, before again levelling out, and getting to halfway. After crossing a field there is a flat road section of a mile or so, before a nice downhill section. Then it’s off road again - you cross several flat grass fields, with the Brewery coming back into view. Circumnavigate the horses and hurdle over any sleeping goats, and you’re at the finish line/bar!" "Medal, goody bag and a free drink."

"Both courses run through beautiful rural countryside. The Half is a road race, but mainly on very quiet lanes with only about 600 yards of B road. It would best be described as hilly/undulating and as such not one for a PB. The 10K course follows the same first 2 miles as the Half, but with this run you get some beautiful woodland running to mix it up. Both events swing South out of the village through small country lanes, where the Half crosses the M50 for the first time at Four Oaks, the 10K at this points 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 (location of the last drinks station for the half) before returning to Candle Cottage on the edge of Kempley prior to veering back Eastward for the final few miles back to Dymock and over the old railway bridge. For the 10K, following the right turn just before the Motorway bridge, you need to loop (only once) through Dymock Woods, you continue on the lane through towards Norman's Land towards Dymock, once back to Dymock back over the old railway bridge, both races then go past the Beauchamps Arms and sprint to the finish." I don't know how accurate this map is. "M markers." "Chip timing." "Medal."

This web page says the event has been cancelled. 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." "The first 350 runners finishing receive a medal." "Runners are encouraged to form teams of four, which can be male, female or mixed, to win team prizes."

I understand that this year's event has been cancelled. "Venue is the Longborrow Hall, Park Lane." "The Run The Rock course takes place on an undulating, mainly off road course, throughout natural beauty. You will experience tracks, fields, woods, footpaths, open lanes, chalk lands, grasslands and our local residents otherwise known as the Red Kites. A 5K race is available for the more novice runner or keen walker. Or alternatively take on the 10K race for the more experienced athlete looking for a challenge." "K markers." "Medal, goody bag." There is also a Kids 1K Fun Run at 0900.

The villages of Upper/Middle and Lower Tysoe are in Warwickshire, about 10M from Banbury. "Venue is the Tysoe Sports Field, Main Street." "After a short distance through the village, the races join a footpath up to the top of picturesque Windmill Hill - one of the higher peaks in South Warwickshire. From there, the 10K trail continues into neighbouring Compton Wynyates Estate - opened exclusively for this event. Taken through wood copses, across lush fields, past grazing sheep and deer - and up yet more hills - runners are treated to a true 10K challenge in a stunning landscape." "The 5K fun run also goes up to the summit of Windmill Hill from where you can take in the marvellous views before jogging, bounding or rolling back down again!" "Medal." "There is also a 5K walk."

This web page says the event has been cancelled. In 2019 you collected your race number and chip on the day. There are three events: a 15K race (which is actually 15.4K), a 5K (actually 5.4K) and a 10K. The 15K uses both the 5K course and the 10K course. "Start times: 1000:15K, 1005:5K, 1010:10K." "Situated in the Chiltern Hills, the races take in the Chiltern Way, bridleways and off-road sections with numerous amazing Red Kites flying overhead." In 2019, chip timing was used and you got a medal.

"Subject to available spaces, entries will be taken on the day, but entering in advance is advised as this race has sold out quickly in the last few years" - although there is a closing date of May 31st, it was full by May 24th in 2018, by May 17th in 2017 and by Jun 1st in 2016. "Venue is the Fairford Cricket Club, Park Street." "You head west along Mill Lane, and then north into Quennington. A drop down Fowler’s Hill brings you to the bottom of the largest incline on the route. At the top, you head south and downhill along Hatherop Road back into Fairford, then a swift loop through The Croft, on to the High Street before the final stretch back on Park Street."

This web page says the event has been cancelled. This Facebook post says the "Ollie Johnson Memorial Kintbury 5" will in future be known as the "Kintbury 5". "Venue is the Kintbury recreation ground behind the Jubilee Sports Centre." "The race is run on quiet roads and tracks around Inkpen and Kintbury." "The course starts off undulating on tarmac roads until 2M, then follows a dirt and stony track, this is then followed by a flat 1.5M along a private tarmac road. To finish off, the last half a mile takes you through the centre of the village, along the High Street and back to the recreation ground." Here are my notes from 2010: 'this 5M race starts with a run round a football field and then it's uphill for 1M - the race ends with a slight uphill - it's mainly on tarmac or concrete but there were a few small, loose gravel, uneven paths - accurate M markers'. "Before the start of the 5M race, we offer children races for 3 age groups."
This race is one of the Run West Berks Series of races taking place at Chieveley on May 3rd, Kintbury on Jun 7th, Hungerford on Jun 21st and Inkpen on Jul 5th. Here is a link to entering the Series. "You save 20 percent if you enter the Series and there are T-shirts for all those who run the Series".

"This race is held annually at Hornton village, 6 miles north-west of Banbury." The start/finish is at the Village Green which means there is about a 350m long gentle rise before the first steep hill. There is then a gentle down followed by a not-so-gentle up. It's then flat for a short while before a big dip. This flattish bit starts at 2K and lasts for about 3K - if it's been raining a lot recently, there'll be a point where you'll have to run through very shallow water that stretches from one side of the road to the other! At 3M, it's steep down into Horley but that is immediately followed by a long gentle climb through and out of the village. From 4M, it's reasonably flat for about 1.5M. The race ends with 0.5K fast down hill back to the Village Green. The race takes place on a "virtually traffic-free course". Here is a link to a map produced by the course measurer and I think it is up-to-date. In previous years, drinks and refreshments were available after the race together with a 'Bring your own Burger' BBQ.

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." "Chip timing." "Technical T-shirt, medal."
