This web page says "we are sorry to inform you that there is no race in 2018 - we shall be back in 2019". "Athletes should be prepared for a hard physical effort with uneven road and footpath surfaces in places." "From the start, a short road section quickly leads into paths and open tracks. After about 700 metres the 5k and 10k routes separate with the 10k following a long flat path along one of the gallops horse training routes followed by a short but steep climb up to the ridgeway of White Hill. After a short off road grass section that allows the runners unobstructed views across Hampshire, West Berkshire and Watership Down, the route joins the Wayfarers Path. After a short distance the route heads back down from the ridge through a farm to join the 5k route. After running through a small wood with open glades both races cross Winchester Road leading to a flat long straight picturesque run along a second gallops race horse training area. At the end of this straight, the route joins a small quite private road before once again crossing Winchester Road and passing through Gaily Mill. Runners have an option to track for a short time through the stream by the abandoned Mill or along the narrow footpath before heading up and returning to the finish."

Previously the Misbourne 5K Trail Race was described as follows: 'it comprises an undulating multi terrain approximately 5K course in the countryside and woods behind The Misbourne School - the route mostly follows footpaths and bridleways with a very small section of road at the beginning and end of the course - the race finishes on the school playing field - it includes some ascents and descents.'

"Collect race number on the day." "Venue is The Brocas." "On 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 3 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 three boats will be clearly labelled as 40/50/60 mins respectively. So when entering, its 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." "The course is set under the beautiful backdrop of Windsor Castle and is a flat 10K run on mixed terrain and is not suitable for spikes. Whilst most of the course follows the Thames Path there are some sections that border fields and could become muddy if we have had persistent rain. There will be times when the course will deviate away from the Thames Path to give the boats time to turn around but don't worry you will soon be back on their trail again and racing them home!"

"The Long Legs (1, 3, 5) are approximately 5.25M and the short legs (2, 4, 6 ) are approximately 2.75M." "All legs start and finish at the same point so there are no complicated changeovers to manage." "The race is designed to appeal to athletes, joggers, families and all sports-minded people. Families and supporters are very welcome, the event is ideal for a picnic day out. A fun run will also be provided for under 12s."

In previous years, there have been entries on the night. "This race is held annually at Hornton village, 6 miles north-west of Banbury." I've been informed that this "will be the 25th Anniversary of the race". 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".

"Collect race number on the day." "Venue is the Horsemarling Farm." "It's a multi-terrain race over a course of almost ten miles following parts of the Cotswold Way." "The route is hilly and run on mainly woodland trails, with some road, along the scenic Cotswold escarpment." My notes from when I did it in 2010 say: 'from 0.5M to 1.5M there is a 500 feet climb - there is then two laps of a 3.4M circuit through the woods; finally you return down the hill to the finish - the woods are gorgeous and they reminded me of my training runs in the Chilterns - I even heard some Red Kites - the terrain in the woods was rough and undulating'.

"There are different prices depending on when you enter." "Entries will close when we reach 6000 entries. From experience, this is around the end of June." Entrie for the 2016 race were closed on Aug 1st and entries for the 2015 race were closed on May 20th. "The race takes place close to Windsor Castle within the confines of the Windsor Great Park. The course is two laps, one of approximately 4 miles, the other of about 7.5 miles with the remainder made up by the 1.5 mile Long Walk at the start and end of the race. The course is best described as undulating. It has many flat stretches, but there are some hilly sections to make the race a bit more interesting. The final 1.5 miles Long Walk is particularly impressive. The impressive sight of Windsor Castle in the distance beyond the finish line is quite outstanding and not something many will forget quickly." "The course is tarmac throughout." "Chip timing." "T-shirt, medal." "There are also the Sprite Sprint for 5 to 9 year olds at 0900 and the Glynn Shefford Memorial Run (of approx 2.5M) for those aged 10 and over at 1015."

I understand that it is planned for entries to open on Jun 22nd. 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."

"Venue is the beautiful Stonor Park. The races take place in the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty." "Medal, bottle of Maverick Trail Ale." Here's my analysis of the routes following a quick look at the 2017 maps. There's little tarmac as the routes use footpaths and these often trail through woods. The 8K climbs gradually up to Southend and then descends down to Dolesden. It returns by gradually climbing to Kimble Farm. The 15K and the 23K take a longer route between Southend and Dolesden that takes in Turville Heath and the outskirts of Turville. After Dolesden, both the 15K and the 23K climb to Gussets Wood after which they descend and then climb to Bosmore Farm. However, the difference between the 15K and the 23K is that the latter does this using a 7K detour to the outskirts of Hambledon. All three routes finish using a short sharp steep descent through woods down to Stonor. Watch out for the tree roots!

It starts from the village green in Woodcote, goes down hill along lanes through woods to Goring. At 5K, it goes up the killer hill that is outside Goring's Fire Station, the same hill that is used for the start of the Goring 10K. There is then a 1K respite but this is followed by a long climb back to Woodcote. Elsewhere on the web, someone says it's a "tough road race, 5K downhill followed by 5K uphill" and that describes it very well.' Previously this race was known as the 'Goring, Woodcote and District Lions 10K'.
