The Marathon route takes you from Salisbury to Winchester along the ancient Clarendon Way with a few extra turns here and there to make up a full 26.2 miles. More than 90% is off road, with the trail following country tracks and paths - many of which have not changed since being travelled by the ancient Kings and Queens of England.
The Half Marathon starts from the village hall in Broughton. The route is mostly off-road, is tough and challenging but possibly one of the most scenic races you'll ever enter.
The Mini is a very informal run which allows runners to join us just for the last 5 miles. It starts in the middle of Farley Mount Country Park between 1.15pm and 1.45pm (bus leaves Kings School Winchester at 12.30pm).
