This years Spring Run is on a completely new course which heads out to Ambersham & Heyshott Common. The commons are sites of Special Scientific Interest and Grade 2 Nature Conservation site. Both are mainly heathland with a wide range of invertebrates, including three nationally rare species. In fact, this habitat is rarer than a Rain Forest!
This really is a stunning landscape and course (take a look at our Flickr album), which you’re unlikely to find anywhere else in the UK. Even though you might not notice a Dartford Warbler, Tree Pipit, Woodlark, Hobby or Stonechat, rest assured you’re in for a treat ‘out on the common’. There will be a mix of great trails, some firm, some wet and quite a few sandy areas which makes this area unique. Runners will have the choice of taking on either a 5km *, 10km, 10 miles or dog-friendly canicross course across the stunning grounds of Cowdray Estate and the South Downs National Park. Don’t underestimate the course, it’s nowhere near as tough as last years Spring Run at Bexley Hill, but it’s still a good challenge and the ground conditions will take their toll.
Following the success of last seasons races, Cowdray and Raw Running are all set for the 2024/25 Series of “Run the Seasons" at Cowdray,” This is a unique opportunity to explore our country Estate in West Sussex in each season. Runners can choose either 5km, 10km or 10mile route with canicross options. Why not enter the 10km run series for a chance to be crowned male or female series winners and be presented with a luxury hamper from Cowdray Farm Shop & Café. Overall winners will be decided on a points system based on their finishing position with their top three results counting towards the series. To get a flavour of what 'Run the Seasons' offer, head over to our Flickr album.
