Organiser's Description
We're thrilled to bring you our newest venue — the magnificent Hockwold Hall, set in beautiful private grounds.
Hockwold Hall is a former Royal Residence that is nestled in a small breckland Village located on the border of Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire.
Best known as a stunning wedding venue and for the flock of peacocks that roam its gardens, the estate offers a truly special backdrop for a day of running. You'll loop through landscaped parkland and estate grounds, surrounded by mature trees, open lawns and period charm — and quite possibly an audience of peacocks along the way.
Your Distance, Your Day Everyone starts together (11am), then you choose how far you go — from a 5k right up to an ultra. Run it, jog it or walk it; chase a PB or simply soak up the surroundings. It will be a 5.3km loop.
There are no cut-throat finishes here — every single finisher is celebrated the same.
