2021 Mota-vation Summer Race

The organiser's website says the Mota-vation Summer Race "is a 3.92 miles approx. (off road, not certified) course" that takes place at Stratfield Brake in Kidlington (near Oxford). Normally this race is the last of Kidlington RC's Mota-vation series of 5 races taking place in villages near to Oxford, but because of Covid-19, in 2021, the other 4 did not take place.

.
The above map is taken from the organiser's website. Their website says "the course is predominantly on mown grass, but partly on gravelled footpaths, with slightly uneven grass transitions - overall, the course is flat - the elevation variation is a maximum of 13 feet." As you can see from the map, it's a two lap course. Most of the northerly part of the course is on grass around the outside of cricket grounds, rugby pitches and football pitches. The stretch along the westerly part of the course is a track that passes some ponds belonging a nature reserve. The stretch along the southerly part of the course is a path through grassland on lap 1 and is a track through woods on lap 2.

The 2021 Mota-vation Summer Race took place on Thu Aug 26th. The race had UKA licence 2021-42136. It is one of the races of the Oxfordshire AA Road Race Grand Prix.
