Organiser's Description
White Star running returns to the Rushmoor Estate with a variety of off road races in beautiful surroundings.
Dark Ox on Friday night is 6.5 miles of dark action in Chase Wood. On Saturday there's Ox Frolic for solos or teams with each lap being 10.5k, so four laps = a marathon. Ox 50 is back on Saturday as well with the usual stuff - do enough laps to reach 50 miles and boom! You are done. Thing is there is a generous cut off but if you won’t make 50 miles in that time you will get a 12 Hour medal and time so no one goes home empty handed. Light Ox on Sunday morning is a chance to run the quarter 6.5 mile course in the light, and if you finish quickly enough you can fit the half marathon in right after….you must be mad
