It was a lovely day – perhaps too lovely?
The race starts in the heart of Sherwood Forest and keeps mostly to forest trails and footpaths. The route passes charming lodges, through Cresswell Crags and skirts the Welbeck Estate. It then crosses Clumber Park and through peaceful farm land before looping back to pass by the Thoresby Estate before returning to Sherwood Forest. The 40 miler passes The Major Oak!
Four Striders took on this event and did brilliantly. A couple of runners nearly quit – but only nearly! Well done guys, you’re inspirational!
