We would be delighted for you to join us for one of the two routes available. There will be a half marathon (13.1 miles) route or a 10km route. These will be self-navigated and you will receive written instructions to follow. There are no marshals or arrows. They will be mostly off-road on varying terrain, mainly on grass, tracks and paths.
Prices are £10 for the 10km (plus 50p booking fee) and £15 for the half marathon (plus 60p = 4% booking fee).
J Gards & Sons have kindly allowed us to use their car park and set up our registration area. Their address is The Timber Mill, The Tye, East Hanningfield, Chelmsford CM3 8AA (What3words location: blanking.costumed.juniors). Please park considerately, get ready by your car and leave bags in cars (there is no bag drop). Parking will be open from 8am and there will be a staggered start between 8.30-9.30am. Once you are ready to run, please come to the registration point where you will be given your instructions and number and wished good luck! You will be timed in and out, but this is not chip timed.
There will be an aid station for the half marathon route but this is a cupless event, so please carry your own cup or drink bottle.
The event will be run with the current, at the time, COVID 19 restrictions

<b>About Farleigh Hospice:<br />
<br />
Who are we</b><br />
<br />
Farleigh Hospice is a registered charity (no. 284670) which provides hospice care to people affected by life-limiting illnesses across mid Essex. Since being established in 1982, our hospice and our team of healthcare professionals has grown and evolved to meet the changing needs of the community we serve.<br />
<br />
<b>How we are funded</b><br />
<br />
All of the services we provided are available the people of mid Essex, completely free of charge.<br />
<br />
With approximately 44% of our yearly running costs being funded by the local NHS, we rely on the support and goodwill of the local mid Essex community to contribute to the over £16,500 it costs to provide our services each day.<br />
