Springfield Striders Hobble

The Springfield Striders Hobble is the longest established trail race in Essex, featuring a unique course each year. Participants can choose between two distances: approximately 15 miles or 6 miles, navigating through paths, tracks, and country lanes. This self-navigation race requires runners to follow a written route description provided on the day, as there are no course markings or marshals.

The event takes place at the Horse & Groom pub, which also offers toilet facilities. Entry fees are £7 for affiliated runners and £9 for unaffiliated, with a £3 voucher included for use at the pub. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
