Set in the beautiful grounds of Grimsthorpe Castle, in the delightfully charming Lincolnshire countryside just 10 minutes off the A1, this event makes for a perfect summer race, whether you take on the family friendly 5k or go for the longer challenge of 13.1 miles.
The four routes take you past various delights within the private grounds including the castle, lake, tree-lined tarmac avenues, ancient woodland, and even a disused Victorian railway. The train line no longer exists, but the 10 and 13.1-mile routes travel along this section and take you to a part of the world generally unseen by the public.
The race start/finish line will be in front of the castle along the driveway, offering a unique venue. All finishers receive a bespoke race medal!
