Well organised, ample parking. Maybe a few more toilets would help with queuing. I personally found the track dangerous in a few places (deep gravel and hardcore). Lovely medal, marshals all friendly and ample water. I would not do it again due to risk of injury.

Foxes Farm Produce was established in 2007 by us, Guy and Emily French. Having over 15 years of experience we are one of the leading pumpkin wholesale growers delivering from our farms in Essex throughout the UK to wholesale outlets, retail outlets, and fellow pumpkin patches. Guy and I have caught the running bug in 2024, and thought what better way to celebrate than to host our own running events!
