The Clumber Lakeside – Winter 2026 – Day One

You'll receive your pre-race briefing via email roughly ten days before the event date that will be packed full of all of the information that you may need to know.

• Full on site first aid
• Bespoke medal
• Fully signposted route
• Huge fully stocked aid station at the race HQ
• Amazing support from Team Rasselbock and other runners
• All the snacks and drinks that you could imagine

The route is currently a work in progress, but will be just over 7.07km long around the lakeside with roughly one third on tarmac paths and the rest on trails. We will update this section in the future with more details, but in the event of changes, the route will always be of the same length and character

We will not have sole use of the site and runners will not have the right of way and we will need to be considerate to all the other users of the area, be it walkers, cyclists, dog walkers, and children when passing through any of the “activity areas” of the park.

There are a selection of public toilets along the route and ample coffee shops dotted around the lake. We will also have a small number of portaloos at the start line.

We do not have any secure baggage areas on site but you are more than welcome to leave your bags at the base camp. Whilst we can’t guarantee that they’ll be safe, there will always be someone from Rasselbock around.

We will have a fully stocked aid station at base camp full of all your favorite items, although if you are expecting energy tablets, gels, and supplements, you may need to bring your own as our aid station tends to lean towards the more “enjoyable fuel”. Imagine Fudge, cakes, cookies, and jelly babies, homemade cakes, along with all the savory alternatives
