| | "Venue is the beautiful Stonor Park. The races take place in the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty." "Medal, bottle of Maverick Trail Ale." Here's my analysis of the routes following a quick look at the maps. There's little tarmac as the routes use footpaths and these often trail through woods. The 8K climbs gradually up to Southend and then descends down to Dolesden. It returns by gradually climbing to Kimble Farm. The 15K and the 23K take a longer route between Southend and Dolesden that takes in Turville Heath and the outskirts of Turville. After Dolesden, both the 15K and the 23K climb to Gussets Wood after which they descend and then climb to Bosmore Farm. However, the difference between the 15K and the 23K is that the latter does this using a 7K detour to the outskirts of Hambledon. All three routes finish using a short sharp steep descent through woods down to Stonor. Watch out for the tree roots! |

| Frieth Hilly 10K and 5K
10K, 5K
| UKA_2017-27477, UKA_2017-27477 | | Frieth is a village in the Chilterns about 5 miles west of Marlow. The 10K involves sections on road, trails and footpaths through woods and fields, including challenging off-road descents and ascents. There's one point where the route that comes out of a wood to go along the side of a field throws you down from about 160m to 90m during the course of 0.5K. Then, after a flat section along lanes through Fingest and Skirmett, there's the inevitable long hard climb. Although, unlike the descent, the ascent doesn't all come at once, it's still hard work. In about 0.3K you go from about 80m to 110m. The path then flattens out for a bit (in Hatchet Wood) before there is another push. In all, you go from about 80m to 160m in about 2K. Although the rest of the route is mainly undulating, there is the final sting: the last 0.5K is a climb from about 140m to 175m to get back up to Frieth. Even though it's tough, I love this route, and Autumn is a good time to visit the area as the Chiltern Hills are gorgeous at this time of year. There is a 5K event as well as the 10K. "The 5K is certainly a flatter route, and was enjoyed by many school/junior club runners last year. It is an ideal first 5K race, or for those that are not quite brave enough to take on the challenge of the 10K hills just yet." "Both races start at 1000." "Goody bag." "Delicious cakes and biscuits home-made by parents at the school are on sale with teas/coffees." "Hot bacon and sausage sandwiches are also available." "There is also a creche." |

| UKA_2017-28433, UKA_2017-28433 | | "Early bird until Feb 28th." "Registration will be held on Sat Aug 5th at the Gloucester Quays. If you cannot make this collection time, contact the organisers to arrange a special collection on Sun Aug 6th at 0700." "New for 2017: there is a Gloucester City Half Marathon as well as the Gloucester City Marathon." The event is starting earlier than last year: "the start times are 0800 for the Marathon and 0810 for the Half Marathon". "The Marathon's real beauty is that, although it is a city marathon, beginning and ending at Gloucester Quays, it is partially run on flat, rural lanes and alongside the river Severn. This way it gives participants the chance to try for a personal best whilst enjoying a spectacular sightseeing tour." "The Half Marathon starts and ends at Gloucester Quays and follows much of the same route as the longer race but takes a shorter route across the rural lanes between Staverton and Sandhurst." "Medal, technical T-shirt and goody bag." |

After a short off road grass section that allows the runners unobstructed views across Hampshire, West Berkshire and Watership Down, the route joins the Wayfarers Path. After a short distance the route heads back down from the ridge through a farm to join the 5k route. After running through a small wood with open glades both races cross Winchester Road leading to a flat long straight picturesque run along a second gallops race horse training area. At the end of this straight, the route joins a small quite private road before once again crossing Winchester Road and passing through Gaily Mill.

| UKA_2017-29719 OXONGP | | "The Hornton Classic 6 is held annually at Hornton village, 6 miles north-west of Banbury. The race was first held in 1994 with only 25 starters. It is now part of the Oxon Road Race Grand Prix series of races and 150 or more turn up to run this scenic and undulating course through the picturesque villages of Hornton and Horley." The Hornton 6 is described as a "virtually traffic-free course over a scenic and undulating race route". The start/finish is at the Village Green which means there is about a 350m long gentle rise before the first steep hill. There is then a gentle down followed by a not-so-gentle up. It's then flat for a short while before a big dip. This flattish bit starts at 2K and lasts for about 3K. If it's been raining a lot recently, then there's a point where you'll have to run through very shallow water that stretches from one side of the road to the other! At 3M, it's steep down into Horley but that is immediately followed by a long gentle climb through and out of the village. From 4M, it's reasonably flat for about 1.5M. The race ends with 0.5K down hill fast finish back to the Village Green. Here is a link to a map produced by the course measurer and I think it is up-to-date. "Drinks and refreshments are available after the race. For the last few years there has also been free over-night camping where everyone is welcome to stay, but please bear in mind that there are limited facilities. We also hold a 'Bring your own Burger' BBQ" after the race." |

Whilst most of the course follows the Thames path there are some sections that border fields and could become muddy if we have had persistent rain.

The decision has thus been made to move to a ballot and registration for the 2017 race will be open from midday on Feb 1st at 1200 and will close on Feb 14th at 2359.

"So it's a 10K run between two of England's most beautiful castles." "The majority of the course is over tarmac road surface. It is a predominately flat course.

This course map is useful as it not only has the route of the race (marked in red) but it also has the walking route from the Race HQ to the start (marked in blue) and the walking route from the finish to the Race HQ (marked in green).

| Otmoor Challenge
half marathon
| | The Otmoor Challenge is a half marathon along footpaths and roads around the Otmoor. Together with 5 mile and 13.2 mile walks for walkers, it forms one of the events of Horton-cum-Studley's Otmoor Day. "The Challenge starts and finishes on the playing field where a traditional village fete is an added attraction for friends, family and your supporters while you are on the Run." If you enter in advance, your "race number must be collected from the Pre-Registration Desk" which is in one of the tents usually on the left-hand side (NE side) of the playing field. "The good news is that the first 11 miles are virtually flat. The course begins with a mass start of all runners on the playing field, and then has a short 400 metre road stretch before entering a track. This then leads across fields on footpaths, followed by farm tracks before rejoining the road near Murcott. Runners then have a fast road run through the villages of Murcott, Fencott, Charlton and Oddington before a mix of tracks and road to Noke and then there is the 'never-ending field' leading, at the 11 mile point, to a long climb up the hill to Beckley. There is then a steep upwards track and a welcome downhill footpath through fields and woods to rejoin the road for a final fast mile back to Horton cum Studley and the finish line." "All finishers will receive an award." I think this map is accurate. |

Here's a useful description of the 2013 Gaddesden Gallop 10K that appeared in a newsletter of the Tring Running Club - I don't know whether the details are still appropriate: 'The start and finish is in Little Gaddesden and the route goes down the Golden Valley behind Ashridge house, up onto the ridge behind Frithsden, down the roman road track to Nettleden before climbing up the path on the other side of the valley to the monastery. There is then a couple of kilometres on a flat track to Hudnall before turning back across rutted fields to Little Gaddesden. So if you are familiar with the Boundary Trail or the Dunstable 20, you would know a lot of this route. Not that you needed to know it as the marking and marshals were very good, even holding open the kissing gates as we went round. It was very well organised and has nice and relaxed feel.' |

The rest of the course is either flat or downhill, again on rough tarmac, on wide bridleways/cart-tracks or on grassy footpaths through fields where there are two stiles. The route also passes a bluebell wood, a magnificently preserved disused railway station and several bridges across the River Test. "We hand out medals to finishers but there are no placement awards.

The course is a shaped like a letter P, the out and back bit being about 5M long. This out and back bit starts along narrow paths in Spiceball Park. It continues on a footpath that accompanies the A423. The first hill is alongside this main road at about 1.25M. Just after 2M, the course leaves the main road and ventures into the countryside visiting the villages of Little Bourton, Great Bourton and Cropredy. At 5M, the circular 5M bit of the P starts. Here there is a short hill and at 6M there is a longer hill. At the top, you reach a village called Claydon. In my opinion, the nicest part of the course is between 6.5M and 8M: so peaceful on a quiet, narrow lane that crosses the Oxford Canal (between Claydon and Appletree). Unfortunately, this tranquillity is shattered by a significant hill at 8M (and in the future by being only 1K from 225 mph trains on the HS2 railway line). Just after the 10M marker, you complete the circular bit of the course. Just after 11M you meet the last hill which is on the approach to Great Bourton. You know it's coming as you went down it on the way out! The race has been renamed "Geoff Smith's Banbury 15". Geoff Smith, a former chairman of Banbury Harriers, died in May 2015. "Smithy was the spearhead of The Banbury Fifteen road-race". There are also 1M and 2.5M Paul Bithell Memorial fun runs as well (at 1040). |

10K
| UKA_2017-27394 | | "Collect race number and chip on the day." "We sold out in advance in 2016. If entries are still available on the day, they can be bought in the school PE Hall." Following 2016's flirt with 1130, the race is starting at 1100 as it did in previous years. The Goring 10K takes place on undulating rural lanes and footpaths but there are also three or four hills. The race starts at the bottom of a hill outside Goring's Fire Station. The hill climbs from 60m to 95m and lasts about 1K. The race then uses country lanes, 1.5K of the Ridgeway through South Stoke, more country lanes to re-visit the highest point of the course about 1.5K from the end. So you then go down the 1K hill you did at the start but this is then followed by a few meanderings around a housing estate before finishing on a field behind the School. Tip: if you're wishing to finish fast but are tired at the end of the race, these meanderings can be a bit confusing. So the last 0.5K are worth checking out when you are warming up - if you wish to do this, have a look at the course map. A small section of the route is the same as that of the Woodcote 10K. |

"The route, which is a single lap on country lanes is quiet, pleasant and rural through the North Bucks countryside. It leaves Winslow and passes Verney Junction, Sandhills then East Claydon and returns via the Granborough Road to Winslow. (With a bit of a climb to finish, so keep something back!)" "T-shirt." A map of the route shows the course varying from about 85m to 113m. When I ran it in 2010 I found a long gentle incline lasting from 3.5K to 5K and another short one at 5.5K. But the cruel bit was at the end: there was a steep hill from 9K to 9.5K. Needless to say this is where the official photographer was positioned to catch all the grimaces! |

"Venue is Wakelin Farm." "The Northamptonshire village of Gayton sits on top of a hill, overlooking Northampton. The 5k run is a fairly flat route, taking runners through the village of Gayton on quiet, mostly single track roads. The 10k event takes runners from Gayton down single track roads over the Grand Union Canal and railway bridge, with breathtaking views of Northampton. The sting in this run is the Gayton Hill to climb back into the village to join the 5k route back to the finish line." "Chip timing." "Medal." |

| UKA_2017-26960 | | Previously this race was known as the 'Goring, Woodcote and District Lions 10K'. "Race numbers and disposable chips will be distributed from the Village Hall." This 10K is on country lanes in the Chilterns. It starts from the village green in Woodcote, goes down hill along lanes through woods to Goring. At 5K, it goes up the killer hill that is outside Goring's Fire Station, the same hill that is used for the start of the Goring 10K. There is then a 1K respite but this is followed by a long climb back to Woodcote. Elsewhere on the web, someone says it's a "tough road race, 5K downhill followed by 5K uphill" and that describes it very well. "K markers." "Chip timing." "Medal." "Free tea and biscuits to runners." |

10M, 5.5M
| | "The start is at the Crown and Garter Pub, Great Common Road, Inkpen Common." "The Hangover is a 10 mile(ish) wander around the beautiful countryside of Inkpen and Combe. The route takes in Walbury Hill, Combe Gibbet, and the Test Way, with a good mix of road and off-road (footpaths and bridleways), and a couple of decent climbs. We also have a shorter route of 5 miles or so for anybody who doesn't fancy the full distance. The finish is also at the Crown and Garter Pub, with a drink or two in the pub afterwards. Note that The Hangover is a casual get together, not a formal race event, so there is no entry fee, and the only prize is a pint for the first finisher." However, in 2016, 2015 and 2014 the organisers produced a set of results. |

11K, 8K, 6K
| | As reported here, the Oxon XC Championships will be combined with the Bucks XC Championships and with the Beds XC Championships. Here's a link to the course map that appears on the Bucks and Beds websites. My GUESS is that the races take place in the area shown on this area map in which case it's going to be hilly as that map is an OS 1:25000 map which has contours at 5m intervals. This timetable for the races appears on the Oxon website and these notes for entrants appear on the Bucks website. Don't refer to this event as the BBO as you'll confuse everyone as the BBO is Berks, Bucks and Oxon: this is Beds, Bucks and Oxon! The 2016-17 BBO has been cancelled. Aside: this Beds, Bucks and Oxon combined event is on the same day as the Berks XC Championships at Braywick near Maidenhead. |
