This web page says the event has been postponed to Sep 26th. "The race goes through the centre of historic Corsham, then gradually climbs up Park Lane to the peak of the course at 4K. Down Westwells to the water station at 5K before heading onto the country lanes and up to Neston at 6K. It is then mostly downhill to the finish, but watch out for the cheeky climb on Pound Pill at the 9K mark before heading back to the Football Club." "There is also a 2K Family Fun Run which uses a mixed terrain route - the 1st K is in Corsham Park and the 2nd K is along Lacock Road (closed to traffic)."

As the web page for this event is about next year's event, I assume that this year's event has been cancelled. "Venue is Ibstone Common, Ibstone Road." "The 5K leads you down Grays Lane and the off-road descent beyond before levelling off as you head through the Wormsley Estate. 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." "There is also a 1K fun run."

This web page says "we have had to postpone the current event yet again and move it to Sun May 8th 2022". "Venue is the Village Hall, Stevens Drove." "The 11K starts at about 1045." Here are my notes from when I did it in 2010: 'This is a gorgeous run that takes place around Houghton which is a village in the Test valley that is about halfway between Salisbury and Winchester. 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.' "As well as the 11K, there are also a canicross 11K, a 4K fun run and 32K and 14K mountain bike rides."

This web page says the event has been postponed - "we hope to be able to run the event in September or early October 2021". 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."

An announcement on this web page in Dec 2020 says "a provisional date of Tue May 25th has been agreed for the EMGP series Banbury 5 event, if circumstances allow this to go ahead.". However runbritain has a pending date for the race on Jul 13th. Usually the Race HQ and car park is at Banbury Academy, Ruskin Road. 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).'

This is just a guess at the date. This web page says "no decision has yet been made". "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. Also for the last few years "there has also been free over-night camping where everyone is welcome to stay, but bear in mind that there are limited facilities".

Update March 2021 - The organising committee felt that running the race in Jun 2021 would still be doubtful for the event to take place safely for all runners. We felt that Sun Sep 5th 2021 would be a much safer date for our event. This is now confirmed and new entries are open on the runbritain website to join the 297 deferred entrants from last year’s race. While we hope to be able to field the full 1000 entrants on the day, for the moment we will stop taking new entries when this year’s total is 600. We would then aim to open up to a further 200 or 400 more based on advice from England Athletics and general safety guidelines. "Venue is the Thame Leisure Centre, Oxford Road." "Popular race for both the club runner looking for a PB as well as a fun runner looking for a well-managed and affordable 10K race. Start and finish on the playing fields, out through the historic town centre of Thame and back along the traffic free Phoenix Trail." Here is a link to a map produced by the course measurer and I think it is up-to-date. "Chip timing." "Technical T-shirt, medal."

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

This is just a guess at the date. Please e-mail me if you see any information on the web about this event. Frieth is a village in the Chilterns about 5 miles west of Marlow. The 10K involves sections on road, trails and footpaths through woods and fields, including challenging off-road descents and ascents. There's one point where the route that comes out of a wood to go along the side of a field throws you down from about 160m to 90m during the course of 0.5K. Then, after a flat section along lanes through Fingest and Skirmett, there's the inevitable long hard climb. Although, unlike the descent, the ascent doesn't all come at once, it's still hard work. In about 0.3K you go from about 80m to 110m. The path then flattens out for a bit (in Hatchet Wood) before there is another push. In all, you go from about 80m to 160m in about 2K. Although the rest of the route is mainly undulating, there is the final sting: the last 0.5K is a climb from about 140m to 175m to get back up to Frieth. Even though it's tough, I love this route, and Autumn is a good time to visit the area as the Chiltern Hills are gorgeous at this time of year. There is a 5K event as well as the 10K. "The 5K is certainly a flatter route, and was enjoyed by many school/junior club runners last year. It is an ideal first 5K race, or for those that are not quite brave enough to take on the challenge of the 10K hills just yet." "The Frieth Hilly is known for the warmth of its welcome (and its hills). The whole school and villagers turn out to cheer on the runners."
