UTMB TDS – Mon 28/Wed 30 Aug

From Andrew Merrick… The TDS or, to give it its full name, the Traces des Ducs de Savoie is one of the early, albeit slightly less prestigious races of the UTMB week.  Like the CCC, it starts from Courmayeur although takes a rather different route to most of the other runs. It does have the […]

Lidingoloppet 30k trail race – Sat 23 Sept

From Nigel Tapper… A cornerstone of The Swedish Classic series (ski, cycle, swim and run) since 1971, this event doesn’t disappoint. A truly well-organised and fun weekend of running on the island of Lidingo just a little north of Stockholm.  Lovely courses of varying distances, through pine-needled forest trails and the coastline of the Baltic […]

Severn Bridge 10km – Sun 27 Aug

From Lucy Williamson… On Sunday I took part in the Severn Bridge 10km. Running across the bridge from Wales into England and back again. The runners were held in the event village while the M48 was closed and then guided down the slip road to start on the bridge. A lovely race with very friendly […]

Antrim Coast Half Marathon – Sun 27 Aug

From Hilda Coulsey… What an amazing experience.  Daniel Mateiko ran the fastest half marathon time in the world this year to win this race in 58:36, a record obviously for the race and also breaking the UK all-comers record, with Mestawut Fikir winning for the women in 66:46.  It is a fast course, fairly flat […]
