This exciting event invites runners and walkers of all abilities to experience a unique 5.3k out-and-back course along a scenic route on an old disused train line. With our 'TUGG' system—Turn Up Get Going—you can arrive anytime between 7:30 AM and 2:30 PM, giving you the flexibility to complete as many laps as you can within the 7-hour timeframe. Whether you aim to finish just one lap or challenge yourself to complete multiple laps, every participant is celebrated as a finisher and will receive a commemorative medal.

If you're looking for local accommodations, we highly recommend the Fox & Hounds, offering comfortable lodging and delicious food.
