About the race
Rugged Radnage is a multi-terrain running event in Radnage, Buckinghamshire, set in the Chiltern Hills. The event raises money for the village school and is centred on the village hall, which is the start and finish location.
Distances
- 5K village streets and off-road trail.
- 10K follows the 5K with an additional loop through Crowell Wood.
- Mini 1 mile children’s fun run in the fields at the village hall.
The 5K starts next to the village hall on Green Lane, runs along City Road past the Crown Pub, then goes off-road at Pophleys down a steep rutted track to Grange Farm Road. The route continues through Bennett End, past a pond onto Bottom Road, and finishes after a final steep footpath climb with about 500 m to the finish.
The 10K follows the same initial route but turns into Crowell Wood at about the 2 kilometre mark. Around kilometre 4 there is a steep muddy climb through trees, followed by a fast descent that rejoins the 5K route for the final 3 kilometres.
Practical details include parking opposite the Crown Pub (about a ten minute walk to the village hall), number collection for pre-registered runners at the village hall, and on the day registration. Payments on the day are by cash or cheque only. Photographs will be taken along the 10K route and may be published unless a large red cross is placed on the race number; red markers are provided at the village hall. All children in the Mini run receive a medal and trophies are awarded in the Under 7s and 7-11 years categories. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
