Maverick Adidas Terrex Frontier South Downs

Sat 6th November 2021

A group of runners participates in a trail race up a grassy hillside. The path is muddy and winds up towards a small pond in the background. The runners are dressed in various colorful athletic outfits. The landscape is dotted with trees and other participants in the distance.

Organiser's Description

We head to the South Downs for the fourth and final event of our new Frontier series. Whilst the routes are aimed at all levels of runners the emphasis is on taking you Mavericks to your first / fastest / funnest 50km.

With all four routes starting in Slindon Woods, you’ll be running straight out onto trails that weave through the Slindon Estate. All four routes pack a punch, with some short sharp climbs that get the legs and lungs burning. The 50km route will take you up and over Glatting Beacon and Sutton Down as well as Upwaltham and Bignor Hill, meaning you’ll clock up over 1000m of vertical ascent.

This is a beautiful route that crisscrosses the East and West Sussex border, with woodlands, farm trails and ridgeways to run along. If you haven’t run your first ultra yet... then join us for this one. You won’t regret it.
