Ready for mud, water and fun? Note new obstacles at every event! 5k and 10k options are available. The 10k is two laps of the 5k course. This means if you run the 10k you will face every obstacle twice…ouch. Note due to the nature of the event and the venues used course distances are approximate.The exact number of obstacles is top secret but expect at least 25 obstacles per lap.
Brought to you by the team behind the successful and well-regarded Bike Bath event, Bike Oxford is a day of marked rides of 25, 50 and 80 miles starting and finishing at Oxford University Rugby Club, Iffley Road, and taking in the best scenery of Oxford and the surrounding countryside. Come and join the Restore team!
The run takes a scenic route around the trails and paths of Blenheim Palace, taking you past the Palace and over the Grand Bridge, before a spectacular lakeside section. Entry to the race includes entry to the grounds, designed by Capability Brown and described as “the finest view in England”.
Rough Runner merges distance running (anything from 5km up to 15km) and obstacles that you’ll have to take on along the way. But not just the regular, military-style obstacles you’ll see on every other event out there, that do nothing but freeze, burn, lacerate and electrocute you. Instead, Rough Runner’s obstacles are inspired by all those game shows we love – Takeshi’s Castle, Wipeout, Gladiator, Ninja Warrior and more. So if you’ve ever thought that the Travelator looked like a challenge, a sweeper obstacle would be a great laugh, or you just fancy a go on the big balls, then Rough Runner is for you.
Elder Stubbs are taking part in Art Week during the week of 22nd May, with a small exhibition space inside the recovery group and a sculpture trail in the outside allotments. There will be some beautiful pieces from members across Oxfordshire, if you’re in the area please do pop in for a wonder.
Take on the TrekFest challenge, complete 25km or 50km on foot through some of the UK’s most renowned and beautiful national parks – Brecon Beacons, South Wales or Peak District, Derbyshire. Thousands have taken on the TrekFest challenge over the last four years and helped raise well over a £1 million for UK registered charities. TrekFesters tell us its a truly life changing experience to take part in, the sense of achievement you feel crossing the finish line knowing you made every step count by raising funds for charity is indescribable.
London Nightrider will be back for it’s 8th year in 2017! Every year tweaks are made to the route but you can expect as many of the highlights of London as they can fit in, and some little treasures you may not know about. It really is a unique way to explore the capital city.There are 2 routes available – a 100km and a 50km ride. Both are circular and start and finish at the same place, Lee Valley VeloPark. The 50km route will be an inner loop of the 100km route.Full support, back up and regular break stops are provided throughout the night and a well-earned breakfast and medal at the finish. To take part in this amazing event would usually cost £100…all we ask is to raise the minimum of £175 to ride for a bargain price of £39!
