Organiser's Description
Think of your most memorable running events… what was it that made them special? Was it a beautiful location? The most incredibly friendly Marshalls? A totally unique, special medal? Or running with the best group of people?
Laura and I think that all these things combined are what produce the kind of events that create really special memories. So we are over the moon to announce that 2024 will see Rasselbock join forces with We Are Fearless once again for the Rasselbock Rainbow Run ❤
On the 7th of June 2026, we’d like to make Sherwood Pines once again shine so bright, it’ll be visible from space. There will be prizes for the most colourful runners, rainbows on faces, and rainbows in the aid station.
The event will follow the usual formula at Sherwood. There will be 6 hours to run as many 5.79km laps through the beautiful forest as you’d like. You need only complete one lap to collect your momento, or you can keep going all day.
We promise it’ll be an event to remember and can’t wait to see you there!!

This is not a traditional Rasselbock event, there will be laughter and happy tears before PBs

Course Details
The route sets off from our own dedicated Race HQ area as we head into the forest weaving through the Pines. The route is on a mixed trail of forest floor, muddy areas, and packed gravel paths. Enough of a mix to keep the laps interesting. There are some hills included in the route for free, but nothing that you cannot manage.
(It is possible that this could change before the event as Sherwood pines is a working forest and there are planned fellings in 2025 on this route).

Great event. The team and marshals were amazing and supportive. Like minded runners. Great food selection. Novelty finish tea light. Will definitely do another one. 8 loops is hard though mentally
