About the race
Runners v Riders is a festive event held on Boxing Day, where runners compete against cyclists for the prestigious Markham Cup. This traditional race, which began in the 1930s, takes place on a challenging 3-lap course through the muddy terrain of Friday Woods, a military training ground. Participants can expect a thrilling experience, with the first six finishers from either category winning the cup.
A junior race is also included, featuring a shorter 2-lap route. The event emphasizes safety, but participants should be prepared for potential collisions and uneven terrain.
