Join the Wadhurst Runners beside the water at beautiful Bewl for a local race that will delight with every step and help raise valuable funds for the KSS Air Ambulance Service!
Race Overview:
This event offers either a 15 mile race or 5 mile race option. It’s one of the most beautiful races in the UK with a stunning race route around Bewl Water. We can’t lie; it’s a challenging trail route! But, the views are magnificent and the quiet country lanes must have been made for racing so you won’t be disappointed. It’s a corker of a race filled with community spirit and heart. Not only that, but you’ll be racing to support the KSS Air Ambulance Service… more on them below!
There will be plenty to enjoy at the race village, including home made cakes and the local brass band will play to welcome all runners home.
Course Details:
The start/finish of the race is located a short walk down Blacksmiths Lane from the centre of Wadhurst. The race then takes you on a downhill section to Bewl Water and after covering a circuit you make your way back up the undulating lanes of Wadhurst back to the finish. There are two sets of speed bumps immediately after the start/finish that present a trip hazard so runners should keep this in mind.
Please note, new for 2025, the 15 mile route includes a four hour cut off time.
Prizes:
Bespoke medal for all finishers.
Commemorative Bewl t-shirt for all finishers.
Please note, at the point of booking, you will be given the option to donate the cost of your medal and/or your commemorative t-shirt to the KSS Air Ambulance Service.
We are also pleased to announce that there will be a cash prize of £100 for the male and female winners of the Bewl 15 Mile race.
