Rosliston Rumble: Weekend Edition - Spring 2026

The route is 5.275km long and run through a mix of forest trails and single tracks. Underfoot you’ll have a mix of natural woodland and gravel tracks and I can guarantee that it will be extremely muddy in places so I’d recommend trail shoes if possible.

Please be aware that the route will have some very muddy areas so you will need extra shoes and socks to change into before you head home unless you like filling the car with the excess mud!

If the route ends up being unrunnable due to the mud then we will have an alternate in place with a similar length and character, but this will only be used in the worst case. You can see the route and download a GPX file through the link below.

The event will be taking place on and around a working forest that will still be open to the public. 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 forest.

There is a time limit of 6 hours for this event starting at 10am. This means that you need to have completed your final lap before the end of the 6 hours for it to be counted towards your final distance. Each lap will be 5.275km long which means if you complete 4 laps you have done a half marathon, 8 laps, a full marathon, and anything more will be classed as an ultra. You can finish your event at any time within the six hours, and as long as you have completed one lap then you will be classed as a finisher.

Zoom

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
• All the snacks and drinks you could imagine
• Amazing support from Team Rasselbock and other runners

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 along with all the savory alternatives.

You are more than welcome to bring your own food and drink to the aid station. We will have a separate table for these so please make sure that your bottles or items are clearly labeled so that no one takes them by accident!
