History and running in perfect settings.
The race is based in the village of Naseby which is famous for the battle in 1645. It follows a 35 mile loop taking in some of the most interesting country houses and historical sites in England including Naseby, Holdenby, Althorp (home of the Spencer family), Cottesbrooke, evidently the house Jane Austen used as the basis for Mansfield Park as well as some stunning countryside.
Each of the 5 checkpoints will have water and a selection of energy gels, sweets and cake plus savouries at CP3 with Vegetarian and Vegan options. Tea, coffee and cake is available for all athletes at the finish.
This year is the first ever Clockwise Edition - if you think you have run this race before then you haven't!
