Organiser's Description

We're delighted to have been invited back to the wonderful Hurtwood Park Estate for another Dragon's Eye event. We'll have our epic aid station set up just behind the beautiful main building with great access to the polo club facilities and the route is a stunning loop around the estate.

This is a multi-distance event - from 5km to 10k, half to marathon to ultra, you can complete as many, or as few, laps of a looped course around the beautiful Hurtwood Park Estate within the overall 7 hour time limit. We welcome all abilities of runner - complete one loop and you're both a finisher and a winner in our eyes, or keep going and see how far you can get in the full 7 hour time limit and everyone gets the fabulous finishers' medal. The medal is one of our epic bespoke designs and you're not going to want to miss this one.

Not sure? Well the beauty of this format is that you don't even need to decide in advance - simply come and run a lap and see how you feel on the day and keep on going if it feels right.

Places will be strictly limited so don't leave it too late to enter.

Minimum distance is 2.62 miles or as far as you can go in 7 hours. Off road trail, mostly flat through the estate.

The signing in process was easy, quick and included route directions (which was especially welcome as it deviated slightly from the pre-race details). The refuelling station was plentiful and varied. As the format was multi lap this allowed caps and sunglasses to be grabbed as the sun rose higher. Beautiful location but be aware that this is a mixed surface event which is a little uneven in places.

The organisers did a fantastic job, the medal is fantastic, and most of the course is great. My only criticism is the wooded section. It’s very hard to keep your pace going, and you have to watch out for trip hazards. I think I’d preferred another lap instead. However this was an amazing event, and I’m thrilled to have attended.
