Henley River Trail Run

** event postponed**

If you've never experienced the beauty of Henley-on-Thames, this could be the perfect opportunity.

 

Take part in scenic trail runs that start and finish by the Temple Island Meadows - the official start line for the Royal Henley Rowing Regatta - and you'll see some of the best views around Henley and the surrounding areas.
 
The event is not designed to be a gruelling cross country through deep mud and puddles, but aims to be a fun, friendly and fast trail run along one of England's most historic courses.

 

F3 Events are proud to be partnered with runr - the fitness and lifestyle brand for people passionate about running. 
 
runr firmly believe that the best thing about running is the community and hope that by wearing runr products, you'll engage with other runners in everyday life and share stories of triumph and failure.
 
Keep an eye out for competitions, special offers and more as we work together in 2021. runr will be providing exclusive prizes for top finishers at the 2021 event.
 
Be proud of your achievements, be proud to be a runr!
