Gingerbread run 2027

Experience the whimsical charm of rural England on the Gingerbread Run, returning for its 2027 edition. This relaxed 5-mile off-road race winds through Uffcott's picturesque farmland, featuring farm tracks and undulating fields dotted with mud patches that challenge even the most seasoned runners.
Participants should expect a course filled with natural obstacles such as muddy terrain and small hills. The run starts at 10:30 AM from Uffcott Farm, offering scenic views of rolling countryside throughout its route. While parking is limited, carpooling is highly encouraged to minimize environmental impact.
Upon crossing the finish line, runners will receive a unique gingerbread medal alongside prizes for top performers. Refreshments such as hot soup and homemade cakes are available at a nominal donation that supports local charities like Brighter Futures and The Lily Foundation. A well-marshalled course includes water stations and prosecco at the halfway mark.
First aid services and toilets are provided, ensuring runners have everything they need to enjoy this delightful event while contributing positively to charity efforts.
All spots must be reserved in advance as there will be no on-the-day entries for this year's race. Don't miss out on a day filled with fun, fitness, and community spirit!
