Organiser's Description

The Bright Skies is a thrilling day time trail 10 mile, 10K, and 5K race (with canix races), as well as a 1K/2K kid’s race for 3-11 year-olds. And we have added a new event-a trail half marathon. Bright Skies was born off the back of the Dark Skies event (part of the Wild Night Run Series), after several people said they loved the route but would like to see some of it!

It follows an undulating yomp through Surrey’s muddy, rolling hills in Dorking. Passing through the Denbies Estate in the Surrey Hills, this is our third event at Denbies and we love it here. This year, entrants will make a contribution towards a mental health charity and will be working with some additional event partners.
