​​​

The fast‑track to 10K course is perfect for people who:

​​

​✅ Can already run 5km without stopping and have the goal to run a trail 10K.​

✅ Want to improve, especially when hills are involved!​

✅ Love the trails and want to feel stronger and more confident on them.

✅ Have limited time and want a clear, efficient plan that actually works.​

Five trail runs in a small group, at five different locations, all perfect for trail running:

​

Week 1: Cheltenham Racecourse (8th July)

• This flat 5km run is the perfect way for us to start the course.

Week 2: Lineover Wood (15th July)

• A hilly 6km run - we'll walk the ascents and run the flats.

Week 3: Cleeve Common (22nd July)

• This 8km route combines almost every type of trail running terrain - woods, grass, rocky paths and farm tracks.​

​Week 4: Leckhampton Hill (29th July)

• Epic views of Gloucestershire will greet us when we run up, over and around a lovely 9km route on Leckhampton Hill.​

Week 5: Lineover Wood & Dowdeswell Wood (5th August)

• We'll link two different woody terrains, with a good amount of elevation gain thrown in for good measure: 10km, and 350m elevation gain. Let's mark the end of the course with a post-run drink at Dunkertons!
