Organiser's Description
The inaugural Gnome Roam - dig deep! A fun theme, an excuse for a bit of fancy dress if you like that sort of thing, a bit of Gnomish bling? These perennial colourful garden favourites deserve their own run! Plus we thought it would be nice for a new event to be launched at Northampton too!
The event will be a six hour timed challenge event. Complete as many loops as you wish within the time limit. Run a half marathon, a marathon, an ultra and earn some Gnomish bling! We will of course have suitably Gnomish-themed bling for this 6 hour challenge, based out of the Holiday Inn Northampton, Bedford Rd, Northampton. The route will be a 5.17 mile loop on a mixture of trail, bike paths and tarmac - not flat but not too hilly either, before you panic!
