The course will be a 2 lap traffic free course and will be confirmed shortly. Salcey Forest is a very flat forest and the footpaths are well formed. Of course a forest in winter will be mucky, slippy and muddy but the route is on established pathways. 

They are our event partners. They've kindly donated some excellent prizes for our male and female first place finishers.

They were born in 2017 and are focussed on sports, safety and durability.  Key to their success is their innovative range of reflective products keeping you ‘the athlete’ visible when out training.  Whether your sport is running, cycling, hiking or horse riding Gato Sports will keep you safe and visible in all conditions.

Coventry Runner are our local stockist. We will also be running social runs where you can try out their gear, like us on Facebook to see when these will be.

How far is the race?

10k! This might seem a bit pointless to mention given the name but this is different to a normal Big Bear Event. You'll get the same love, a medal and some goodies but you can't run all night!

There is a strict entry limit due to the size of the car park. Once the event gets down to the last places we'll endeavor to make people aware through social media and via the mailing list. Once the event is full a waiting list will be created. This will be available through the normal entry site.

No. Unlike our other events we will have some biodegradable cups with water/elctrolyte available on the courrse and we will have hot drinks avaialable before and after too. If you have a foldable cup you can bring, even better but we don't insist on it for our short races.
