Organiser's Description

Our checkpoint challenges are the new running buzz and we now have an exciting new series where you can join us once, twice or up to 6 times over the course of the year! You can earn yourself a stunning medal collection and for every challenge you take on you will also receive a super cool armband for each race you run. We will have multiple locations so you can take on these challenges anywhere you want!

These events are essentially virtual, orienteering style runs where you start at a chosen checkpoint and because these are limited to a maximum of 200 runners there's no mass gathering at any one time so completely safe.

Please also note if you enter and at the time of the event lockdown restrictions mean you are unable to get to take part we will provide a full refund.

This is how it works:

* On challenge day you can come to any of our set checkpoints and start at whichever one suits you.
* You can start anytime between 8am and 10am
* We will have event crew at each CheckPoint to support you, check you in, set you off!
* You can do the full circuit, checkpoint A to B, B to C, C to A (remember you can start at any one and finish at any one)
* Distances you can complete will range from 5k, 10k to approximately 15k
* There's no set route in between each checkpoint so you can either take our recommended route or choose your own
* Live results will happen as you scan a QR code at each checkpoint and these results will go straight to our live leaderboard
* Receive a stunning medal on completion
