ZigZag - Great Barrow Challenge - Day 1

The Great Barrow Challenge Day 1, hosted by Zig Zag Running, takes place at the Suffolk Running Centre in Bury St Edmunds. This event offers runners the choice of distances including 5k, 10k, half marathon, full marathon, and ultra marathon, allowing participants to run at their own pace. Day 1 features the Denham Flats route, part of a 10-day series with varied trail courses such as Windmill, Kirtling, and Gallops.

The course is a mix of flat and undulating trail terrain. Amenities include parking, a base camp with water and aid stations, and bespoke medals awarded daily. The event encourages sustainability by being cupless, so runners should bring their own hydration. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
