Spunch, the vibrant mini-adventure treasure hunt, returns to Leek Hockey Club on April 17, 2027. This unique and colorful event welcomes runners and walkers alike with courses ranging from 3k to 33k, offering a variety of durations: 60 minutes, 120 minutes, or the full 180-minute challenge. Participants can choose their route on the day using the MapRun app to navigate over 60 checkpoints scattered across hilly and less challenging terrain. The event takes place as part of Leek Hockey Club's annual big weekend and beer festival, making it a perfect family outing with live music, a bouncy castle, food stalls, and plenty of drinks. On-site registration opens at 11:30 AM, allowing participants to start anytime between then and 2:30 PM. The course winds through North Leek's countryside and urban areas, offering diverse underfoot conditions from tarmac roads to off-road paths. While the landscape is generally scenic with plenty of route choice, some mud might be encountered due to unpredictable weather conditions. With ample parking nearby and a variety of support services including bag drop and toilets available on-site, Spunch offers an inclusive experience for all ages and abilities. Whether you're a seasoned participant or new to the game, this event promises fun and friendly competition amidst a lively festival atmosphere. Leek Hockey Club, Macclesfield Rd, Leek ST13 8LD, invites runners, walkers, friends, families, and even well-behaved dogs for an unforgettable day.
