Cake, Tea & Coffee etc will be available at sensible cost in the Hall after you have finished. A great opportunity to refuel, compare routes and chat with friends & rivals old and new in this lovely Town Centre venue. All cake stall profits will be donated to the Nantwich Food Bank.

Suitable for all ages and all abilities - lots of help available for newcomers. Four legged friends are welcome too, but must be kept under control and on a lead at all times.
Start anytime between 1pm and 2pm. Registration open from 12:30pm.
Over 50 Spunchpoints to choose from, spread out throughout the town, the extensive riverside & lakeside park & , and in the adjoining countryside. You will find lots of varied route choice, from tricky little town centre alleyways, to country park, to countryside towpath, paths & tracks. The area of about 9 sq km is fairly flat meaning fast running for those with speed in mind, or a fairly gentle outing for those prefer to take in the sights. 2k to 22k, the choice is yours!
Visit as many checkpoints as you can in the time available, S-punching using the MapRun app on your smartphone, Garmin or Apple Watch.
After the event, stick around for an hour or two and enjoy the Nantwich Town Centre Saturday vibe in one of the many pubs, bars & cafes in and around the Town square.
Hope you will come along and give it a go!
