High Lodge 10K Guided Trail Run - May
This event is a guided group trail run of 10 km at High Lodge in Thetford Forest, organised by ESCAPE trails to coincide with the group's sixth birthday. The route uses woodland trails and offers a mix of hard-packed paths and single-track trails through woods.
Runs are led at a conversational pace. Participants are grouped by a rough recent 5k, 10k or half-marathon time supplied at booking so that people of similar ability run together, but the group pace is not intended to match those specific race times. Runners should be prepared to move more slowly than their usual road pace if needed.
The terrain is described as mostly flat with very few obstacles, making this suitable for people who have been running on the road and are taking initial steps into trail running. The organiser allows two hours for the session, though actual duration will depend on group ability.
Practical details include a participant fee of £12.50 and parking at High Lodge, for which a charge of £4 applies to attendees. Recommended equipment includes trail shoes if available, a waterproof jacket, sun cream if required, at least 500 ml of water and snacks. The event aims to provide guided time on the trails and opportunities to observe local woodland surroundings. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
