Grimsthorpe 10 2017

NEW for 2017

Grimsthorpe 10 is our 4th instalment of our 10/10 series. If you raced and enjoyed either of Thoresby10 or The Longhorn, then you'll love this new trail run!

Set in the beautiful grounds of Grimsthorpe Castle, in the delightfully charming Lincolnshire countryside just 10mins 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.

ENTRIES CLOSE FRIDAY 11th June

RACE NUMBERS AND TIMING CHIPS ARE COLLECTED ON RACE DAY - FINAL RACE EMAIL & PARTICIPANT LISTS WERE EMAILED EARLY THIS MORNING & ADDED TO THE WEBSITE  - IF YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED IT PLEASE EMAIL calsie@sbrevents.co.uk :-)

ON THE DAY ENTRY MUST BE BEFORE 10am  - Cash only please

13.1 miles £40             10 miles  - £35                10k - £30               5km - SOLD OUT

The 4 routes take you past various delights within the private grounds including the castle, lake, tree lined tarmac avenues, ancient woodland along grassed paths and a victorian railway culvet. 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 just like our other 10/10 races. We will have the usual friendly event atmosphere that we bring to all of our races, & amazing bling - making this perfect for your 1st, 2nd or 100th race!

Like our other 10/10 races we hope you'll come as a family and take the opportunity to enter the 'little legs' into the 5k race. A simple, not too challenging distance that we invite ages of 4+ along to. Plus ALL finishers receive a bespoke race medal!

Please note elevation on the route maps - you start up at the Castle & run downhill towards the lake - there are several undulations on the course with outstanding views.

We welcome Canicross and British Nordic Walking to this event. For the doggies, water stations will be provided to dogs regularly out on course & at Race Village. We recommend your dog wears a running harness & is used to running with you. Remember they need to train too! Don't expect your dog to run a distance just because you can!
