Event Information

Please note there is a car parking charge levied by the Forestry Commission to enter the forest. The rate is subsidised for our runners and will be £5 per car for the whole day. Participants are free to enjoy the forest after the event for no extra charge. Participants will need to pay for parking before or after the event at the pay stations or High Lodge information point and cite the event code. The event code will be provided in the pre-race information email that will go out in the week before the run.

Most information can be found by visiting our FAQs page.
Information specific to this venue is covered below.

This is an event to raise funds for Arthur Rank Hospice Charity. We would ask competitors to try to obtain sponsorship for their run. A suggested minimum figure to raise would be £25. However, sponsorship is entirely voluntary and is not a pre-requisite for entry to the run.

In addition we will be collecting food donations for the Foodbank at each of our runs. We will publish a ‘shopping list’ of food that is needed, as provided to us via the charity, just before each run. Donations are gratefully received but please donate items from the shopping list only.

Refunds will only be given if requested by the 28th February and will be subject to a 5% administration charge. Cancellations after the 28th February will not be entitled to a refund. Sadly, due to the administration involved we do not offer the chance to transfer your place.

Entry Conditions

This is a multi-terrain event and all competitors enter it at their own risk. While medical assistance is provided for the duration of the event no liability will be accepted by either hoohaah, the Forestry Commission, the charity or individual race organisers for any injury incurred by entering this race.

Closing date for entry is midnight 20th March 2020 or when the race limit has been reached whichever is the earlier. Race limits are sometimes put on our events because of weather conditions or other events and issues that might be taking place at the Forest.

Directions

A map of how to find High Lodge, Thetford Forest can be seen here  Please be aware that signal is poor in the area and sat nav does not always work. It might be prudent to familiarise yourself with the location prior to setting off and to print out a map if necessary.

 

Registration

The registration desk at the race start will be open from 8.30-9.45am where race numbers and chips should be collected. Please note race numbers and chips will not be sent out in the post prior to the event.

The Course

The route is a multi-terrain course around the picturesque area of Thetford Forest. The route will include stretches of footpaths, woodland and meadows. High Lodge is nestled in rolling countryside and some moderate hills form part of the course. Parts of the course may be muddy and all terrain running shoes are advisable.

A water station is located at approximately the 5km mark.

Parking

There is ample parking at High Lodge although some parts may be on a field. Please enter online prior to arriving. A link will be given nearer to the race date. Parking is £5 per car. This is a charge levied by the Forestry Commission and not hoohaah. Entry to the car park is by car registration recognition. Please follow the car park attendants instructions and take care entering and leaving the estate.

All cars parked in the car park do so entirely at their own risk and the race organisers or land owners accept no responsibility for any loss or damage to vehicles or valuables parked there.

Prize giving

The presentation of prizes will take place between 11 and 11.15am subject to getting the results from the chip timer. Only prizes for the first 3 men and women over the line will be awarded on the day. All other prizes will be posted.
