Organiser's Description

Our friendly Nene Valley 10 and 20 mile trail running races will show you the best of this beautiful area. You'll be running on easy tracks and paths through the undiscovered, rolling Northamptonshire Countryside.

Starting from Fotheringhay's Castle Farm Campsite, both routes take you through green fields and ancient bluebell woodlands, along rivers and disused railway tracks and quiet, picturesque old villages.

Both distances are fully marked and marshalled (no need to navigate!) with well stocked aid stations. Both the 10 mile and the 20 mile course are ideal for people who have not tried a trail running event before, as well as experienced trail runners.

The eco-friendly wooden medal has been designed by award-winning local artist Steven Hall, a beautiful scene of runners past Fotheringhay Church with a red kite hovering above and ducks on the water below. Please enjoy using it as a coaster for your cups of coffee after the event.

My first trail run and I loved it. The course was beautiful, well signposted and lots of Marshalls. Water and treats half way and at the end. Perfect.

A super trail race through the Northamptonshire countryside along some great trails. Great comms before the race and well organised on the day. Results available quickly post race. I’ll definitely be back next year.

Super friendly, beautiful countryside. Ran the 20 miler this year after the 10 miler last year and had a great time. Course is well marshaled and marked,rolling countryside (not big climbs), footpaths through corn fields and old railway tracks. Three drinks stations with friendly staffing, a must do middle England run

Nene Valley Trail 20 miles, my biggest challenge to date, having started running 18 months ago I’d never taken on such a big run but I chose to take on this one. That decision was definitely the right one. From arrival the atmosphere was great, the organisation was great and I felt part of a community. The run itself was definitely a challenge, took a couple of falls but there was superb support throughout from the army of marshals, each one encouraging and helpful. Thank you to the one who retied my shoelace! The course was well marked out, which for someone with my sense of direction is very much needed! Even half broken and exhausted I was sad it came to an end. I highly recommend this race, see you next year!
