This popular event covers 2.6 miles of quiet country lanes around the picturesque village of Lacock. The emphasis on participation and fun, and no runner should feel they are not quick enough to join in.

The first three events are relay races with three in a team, the final event is a handicap race based on individual times recorded in one of the preceding relay races. To compete in the handicap race you must have competed in at least one of the preceding relay races to set a qualifying time.

Teams are selected on the night by the organiser to the following format: fast runner, slow runner and medium runner, with the aim of having all the teams finishing at approximately the same time, and for everyone to be running against people of comparable speed. It also means that anyone who turns up on the night has a chance of being in the winning team.

There is a small entrance fee of £1 per runner, and there are prizes on the night of drinks/ crisps vouchers redeemable in the Red Lion Pub after the race.
