About
BMHAC are organizing two new trail races in Hampshire. They are a marathon and half marathon that we have named “The Hampshire Hoppit” (for reasons that will become apparent – see below!). The South of England seems to have less trail events compared to the rest of the country, so we are hoping that these two new races will become a welcome and enjoyable addition to the UK trail racing calendar.

Route information
The Hampshire Hoppit marathon and half marathon are both trail races, i.e. predominantly off-road. They use routes that will be clearly marked and marshalled, and including local sections of famous long distance footpaths, the Wayfarers Walk and (for the marathon) the Harrow Way.
Both races are scenic single-lap courses that will start and end at Kingsclere on the Hampshire/Berkshire border, reaching some of the highest points in Hampshire with views across the county.
There are occasional quiet road sections or road crossings that will be marshalled.
