ARCHIVED RACE: Runner’s World Trailblazer @ Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, UK, 26th May 2012

Imagine a 10km run that combines the fresh scent of spring pine with the sound of a thousand runners; where soft, springy forest tracks and trails lead you deep into woodland, along field edges, past open water and eventually deposit you back into the hustle and bustle of a superb event village with post-race food, drink, entertainments and more.

All of our locations have been selected for the quality of their running routes, their accessibility for you, the runner, and their stunning backdrops in which to enjoy a couple of hours or maybe even a whole weekend, with friends and family or simply solo.

May 12th* – Bedgebury Forest – Kent
May 26th* – Forest of Dean – Gloucestershire
June 9th* – Clumber Park – Sherwood Forest – Nottinghamshire

We pledge to do the simple things well; extremely well. Electronic timing with quick and clear text and web results. Free venue entry and parking. A great race T shirt. Special edition merchandise by well-known brands. A fantastic goody bag. Superb event centre facilities, and of course, some inspiring running.

The Runners World Trailblazer Series is new, fresh and devised for all runners: Begin your foray into off-road running with us or challenge yourself to a new off-road PB on our fast, flowing and smooth(ish!) courses.

These are not muddy romps or gruelling cross-country runs; moreover they are fun, friendly and really approachable trail runs, designed to provide a great stepping stone from road to trail, or to allow you the opportunity to run fast in the great outdoors.

Join us in Spring 2012 and help us blaze a trail…
