Route information
The Flitch Way is the old railway system that ran between Braintree and Bishops Stortford. The single track railway opened in 1869 and closed exactly 100 years later, and is now home to a beautiful countryside trail.
The course covers an entirely flat 5.3K loop of hard packed off-road trail, giving runners a slightly cushioned impact compared to tarmac, which is important when running for 7 hours.
If running for 7 hours doesn't sound like your cup of tea then don't panic, this event is designed so you can push yourself at your own pace. So if you only want to complete a couple of laps and call it a day then you are welcome to. Everyone is a finisher here.

FAQs
Can I get a refund on Hare & Tortoise Events?
Unfortunately, due to the nature of the events and initial up front costs required, there are no refunds offered on any Hare & Tortoise events.
Do I have to run the full 7 hours at the Rayneing Medals Marathon & 7 Hour Endurance event?
No, this event is designed so that people can test themselves at their own pace. So whether you want to complete 10 laps or two you will still be considered a finisher.
Is there parking at the Rayneing Medals Marathon & 7 Hour Endurance event?
Yes, there will be limited parking at the Booking Hall itself, but there will be more space available on new Road, opposite side to the Flitch Way.
Do I need to bring my own bottle/cup to the Rayneing Medals Marathon & 7 Hour Endurance event?
Yes, in an attempt to limit the impact to the environment there will be no cups provided at the hydration stations. Therefore, runners are asked to bring their own bottles that can be refilled en route.
