Really well organized event from pre-brief to signposting travel to the event itself. Nice to see local supporters while running and good number of marshalls around the course. And on top of this, the scenery was great and very pleasant to run in.

What a lovely course. Scenic with some good elevation and a mix of trail and 'road'.
The person at the finish line was very enthusiastic and cheered me over the finish line.
Will definitely run this one again!

Very well-organised race. Lots of friendly marshals and clear signposting throughout the course. The route was very pretty, mostly on muddy trails and very quiet country roads. I’ve docked half a star because the race came in a bit short of 20 miles according to my Garmin (and other people’s too!). I would definitely recommend this race.

The 20 miles race was good, but be prepared to get really muddy on wet days!!! Enjoy

The course is great and very well organised and marshalled. Off course facilities could have been better e.g one male toilet cubicle which was broken

Organiser's description
We are delighted to bring you the 1st Trail Mapledurham, which takes place in the beautiful surroundings of the stunning Mapledurham Estate a few miles from the edge of Reading.
The course starts in the lovely Country Park near the famous water wheel and legendary sites from The Eagle Has Landed - you'll wind your way around the estate trails, local roads, woodlands and footpaths. The scenery is well worth the hard work!
We have now added a marathon distance event to the half marathon and 10km. Note - the course contains too many trail sections to be a certified measured marathon usable for event qualifying.
