Event overview

The event is a timed multi-lap run held at Brandon Country Park. It is offered in two session lengths: a six-hour format and a four-hour format. The course is a loop of 5.3 km made up of gravel footpaths and grass areas. Participants may run as many laps as they wish within the session time, and the organiser may allow an extra lap for runners who return to base before the session end. Standard lap counts listed by the organiser include five laps for a heavy half marathon (with options to increase to six or seven) and nine laps for a standard ultra marathon (with options to increase, for example up to twelve).

The event provides an aid station at Race HQ/Base Camp at the start and lap point. The organiser notes minimal navigation and no mandatory kit. Virtual entries are available for those not attending in person. The event has a maximum of 300 entrants and a minimum entry age of 18 years. Entries close on 10/01/2026.

Location and logistics

Location is Brandon Country Park, Bury Road, Brandon, Suffolk, IP27 0SU, in the heart of Thetford Forest. Parking at the park is chargeable and marshals will direct parking on the day. A marshal will also direct runners from the car park to race registration where bibs are collected. There is a baggage area left at the runner’s own risk; participants are likely to pass their cars during laps.

The organiser suggests road trainers but notes trail shoes may be useful depending on prior weather. A bespoke event medal is provided to finishers unless a non-specific "lucky dip" finisher medal option is chosen. Transfers have a closing date before the event.
