Course Details: 7ish arduous country miles around the Eastnor Estate using the same tracks that Land Rovers have been tested and developed on.
Mud Runner is over a variety of terrain and conditions from rolling grassland (well a little bit anyway) to mud, wet mud and sticky mud. The course includes hills, waterfilled pits, muddy banks and did we mention mud. You will get very wet ! The course will be marked and we will let you know the halfway point, other than that it's 7ish miles in length and brilliant fun.
Time: Mud Runner CLASSIC will start at 11.00am. Dependent on how confident you are with the wonders of the british transport system you will want to allow yourself plenty of time to get to the site, sort your kit out, make frequent trips to the toilet, retie your laces and through your absurd (they are not cute or lucky) pre-race rituals before getting to the start.
Changing: There is a small changing area. Most people arrive in their running clothes and bring a warm, dry change of clothes to get into afterwards.
Timing & Results: There will be a race clock at the finish line. Results will appear at www.mudrunner.co.uk on Monday 22nd October.
Race Photography: Race pictures will be available to view and purchase after the event, as well as the slightly blurry photos your own guests and relatives are welcome to take.
First Aid: Medical support will be present on the course and at the finish. You should be relatively fit and have no known medical conditions. If you do want tea and sympathy, Limby is always available for a chat.
Toilets: Toilet facilities are available at the start and finish. The Eastnor Estate is a wonderfully well maintained estate with SSSI areas, so please be respectful of this. It is definitely not a 5,000 acre toilet or rubbish tip so please don't treat it as such.
Water: One drinks station will be at about the halfway point and another at the finish. You might want to bring your own water to consume beforehand (or whatever electrolyte laden snake oil gives you that awesome cutting edge above your nearest rival)
Goody Bag: An event goody bag will be handed out close to the finish funnel. This will include your souvenir Mud Runner CLASSIC tee shirt and some other goodies
Prizes: The first men and first 5 women across the line will be awarded prizes on the day at the venue. There will also be awards for the first male and female veterans by age groups. Marshalls award for the most amusing, enthusiastic or hardest working participant(s).
Team Prizes: Fastest male, female and mixed team (minimum team size of 3).
Refreshments: Mud Tucker will provide a range of great hot and cold snacks for your to devour before and after the race.
Help: We're here to help. For more information or assistance, please contact: info@mudrunner.co.uk or 01531 634066
Your Race Number and Timing Device: These will be posted out no earlier than two weeks before the race and we will send it to your registration address, so best not move house. If you do move, please tell us and yes we are always available for a housewarming, sadly Elsie (despite numerous false dawns) is no longer housetrained.
