Maverick Race

Maverick Race is undoubtedly one of the best trail running organisers in the UK. The company was started down on the Jurassic Coast back in 2013 by Ben and Justin. Since then they’ve delivered events which are guaranteed to take you to some of the most scenic locations in the UK. However, what really separates Maverick is their strive for inclusivity in the outdoors. From 6km entry level runs to 50km ultra marathons, there really is something for everyone. Afterwards you’ll find everyone hanging around, enjoying some fresh pizza, and speaking to like minded people with a shared passion for trail running.

Route description

These courses are designed to test you, however with three different routes there really is an option for everyone.

All routes will take runners through the Hollycombe Forest with its towering trees either side of you, before bursting into the surrounding open plains where runners will behold panoramic views across the South Downs National Park.

This event is in conjunction with TRIBE community, who will be helping to turn the race-day village into a vibrant hub of activity, music, food and drink - all in celebration of the great British outdoors.

First time doing a maverick event and it was amazing! I loved the relaxed atmosphere, it was really well organised, parking was ample and easy, and the course was fantastic (if just a tad muddy!!). The post race goodies were awesome and I loved the live music and fire pits. Can’t wait to do another event, thank you to everyone involved in the organisation!

Great event my only slight criticism was the start should have been more staggered to avoid the huge waits at various style / gate crossings. All it would need is some time between the short, middle & long start times and it would be ok. Admittedly it wasn't helped by the extremely muddy conditions but waiting for 10mins to climb over a style is quite frustrating not to mention cold when its raining!

Awesome event loved it! Wave starts would work better as it was very stop/start at the beginning & queues through narrow paths & over stiles

Joined the event with my son Rob although we didn't run together as he was rather pacier than me! I have been increasing my weekly mileage over the last few weeks and so was confident about finishing. The Somme-like mud was a challenge but I loved the whole event and vibe. This was my first competitive off-road event since Norfolk School Boys Cross Country in 1976! But not my last. See you next time. Andrew Dawson

My first trail race and part of the reason I picked this one is because I'd read how friendly Maverick races are. All volunteers on the day welcoming, friendly & helpful. Great atmosphere to chill out at afterwords. Course very well marked so no fear of getting lost. Big hills, lots of mud, huge amount of fun.

I haven't been part of a Maverick event yet that I didn't love - racing, cheering or volunteering. This particular event had the best combination of vibes from both Maverick and TRIBE. Brilliant event. The team are very honest so you know what you're getting, in this case MUD and lots of it, but everyone out there was smiling, laughing and enjoying the beautiful/challenging route. Maverick races are great whether you want to really test yourself and race balls to the wall (you'll always have good friendly competition - laughing along the way and hugging your rivals at the finish line) but they are also a great opportunity if you want a friendly, beautiful day out with like minded people, there will always be someone to share a story with and help each other to gain that medal.

Great course with a good mixture of county roads, tracks, forest trails and muddy paths. Some steep climbs and some fast descents. This year it was super muddy, not fun at the time in place, but overall, a really good course and felt great afterwards.. A bit of a walk from the train station, but not too long.

From start to finish it was another brilliant maverick event. So many good vibes at the event before and after the run. the run itself was stunning and of course challenging. Another top running event and of course put on by the Maverick team.

Maverick exude good vibes and therefore so do the people who run their races. The route is really well marked, the runners are friendly and supportive and the finish line has great energy, snacks and drinks. Super well organised and sparked an enthusiasm for even more trail running in me!

I absolutely loved this trail run! The location was amazing and the weather happened to be great on the day. The course was hilly but not too technical, i'm not a very experienced trail runner and i found it very manageable. There were water and food stations and i loved that there was a lot of fruit being cut up! I think the frequency of the feed stations could have been better, there were a couple that were too close together, but other than that it was great. The festival was really good, with music, food and drinks. I also loved the tribe bars that were given out! I would highly recommend this run!

This is a great event (our first trail), there are a few things that could be improved but overall we had a fantastic day and will be back.- This is actually 15miles- Getting there is really easy and there is plenty of parking.- They need more toilets, although they did hold for the start which was nice- I don't know how they get around this but down the first hill there is a style and one almighty log jam. We were waiting a good few mins to get through it. Everyone was pretty cool about it and I don't know if its possible to put in another temporary one? - The countryside is stunning and the atmosphere was really great, aid stations well stocked too (although they need to add one for the short route which my GF did)- The course is hilly and the final hill is an absolute brute but the countryside is spectacular. - Post race is a really nice area with food and beer and some live music as you cheer people through.

Ben Macwilliam is an organiser with high standards and this event is a fine example. It was more than a race it was a very cool day out. I unexpectedly met up with old friends who travelled over 100 miles to come and take part as they love these races. I think that just shows the reputation of this event. Everyone there was very friendly and the team on the day were very helpful and fun to talk to. I have not done a trail race for years but I will be back for more with Maverick Races as it was simply awesome. No excuses get out and run in the hills and feel alive!

I booked into this race on the day as online entries were closed and Was not sure until the night before if I could attend this event. I rocked up with no specific training to cover the distance but arrived with an attitude to enjoy the day and the great outdoors. Parking was plentiful and the race start HQ was a short walk away. Booking in was easy as they took cash or Credit/Debit card. There were a few stalls selling items and a lovely cake stall with a big spread. The run: The route was amazing with perhaps 500 meters of road over the long course. This was just to transition from one trail to the next. Having the sun was a gift and only made the experience so much better. The course was not flat. That was obvious from the start. Within the first three miles I had been up and down, up and down and was looking at more up. Dashing through woods under a green canopy was just what every trail runner wants. The footing was great as we navigated the soft trail under foot, although exposed tree routes caught a couple of runners unaware. The whole route was mile after mile of delight and I was only disappointed that my energy was giving out as I hit the final climb, which was a little cheeky.
