Feet Of Endurance
Organiser's Description
--- This event has been cancelled due to ongoing concerns regarding Coronavirus. The race organiser will be in touch with you in due course if you have made a booking for this event. ---
The Feet of Endurance is a 6hr trail tunning adventure for Teams of 6 or 4, Pairs and Solos, the entire event takes place in the stunning grounds of Pippingford Park in East Sussex
The purpose designed trail course is approximately 7km and will be yours for 6 hours so all you have to do is pick your challenge…
Anyone can take part, regardless of your running ability and experience. Being able to run an ‘Ultra’ is cool, very cool, but only a tiny percentage of the running community can do it, so while there is a Solo category for these super men and women the Feet Of Endurance isn’t all about them.
If you’re like the majority of us and sit somewhere nearer the opposite end of the endurance spectrum, you enjoy your local ‘Parkrun’ or heading out for a casual run with your friends in the woods then just rope in a few comrades and enter as a team of 4 or 6. As long as each of you complete the required one lap each you can complete as many as you like… And if it all becomes too much just chill out in amazing surrounds with nice people.
If you fancy pushing yourself a bit further but a solo is just a little much this year, call on a partner and head for the pairs category… Pairs racing is a great bonding experience, as long as you’re there for the change over and don’t make your partner head out for an extra lap, it seems that “oh I was just having a wee” isn’t a great excuse!!
— This is the rescheduled event from 5th September 2020. ---
