Waterway 30 - Running in South Wheatley

HOBO Pace

31 Miles

Very friendly and well organised event.  Tough going underfoot - muddy and uneven. Definitely a run for trail shoes and strong ankles!

This is my second event completed in the Hobo series and both have been really friendly, top notch events. It is a professionally-run outfit, that are difficult to fault. Waterways 30 is a scenic course making great use of riverside tracks. The aid stations supplied a variety of sweet and savoury treats and the marshals/organisers were, without doubt, the friendliest and helpful I've come across. The soup was gorgeous at the end and we were gifted with a personalised medal and technical vest- an extremely great value for money event. I'll certainly be looking to complete the other races put on by Hobo.

I found the event was really well organised and the staff at the 2 checkpoints i stopped at very friendly, happy and helpful, especially the 2 ladies at CP3. The course was very muddy which some might say you should expect in january and i did wear good trail shoes, the comments i heard a lot which i agree with was in places it was just un runnable due to the mud and many people also wondered why the waterway 30 was 32 miles 

Another classic from the Hobo Pace team. I've done 4 of Ronnie's ultra's now and they're well organised and friendly.  I can't wait for the Dukeries 40 and Robin Hood 100!

Flat but tough muddy course, quite exposed in places. Super organisation and delicious soup after!

Due to the wind, rain and the silly amount of mud I found this really hard. A course to breeze through on a dry lovely day. Loved the orga and all volunteers were absolutely fabulous! Hats off to the two people sitting at the turn-off from the Trent! They were cheering us on through the wind and rain. 

That stretch along the River Trent was a mental battle! And the finish line moved further away this year! ;-)

Really well organised friendly event.Thanks Hobo.

The event was great from the course to the volunteers. Well stocked filling stations but not everyone is a vegan so a little meat menu may not go a miss but that does not take away the overall high standard of this event. Will I be back yes defo thanks again great day. 

The event was very well organised from start to finish with plenty of information given well in advance. The course is easy to navigate and the markings are extremely helpful. Certainly a good race for a first Ultra. All of the marshals are extremely helpful and friendly and were all upbeat even though the weather was not the best. All of the aid stations were extremely well stocked. The medal engraving is a nice touch!

Loved this run (wont call it a race as just wanted to finish). The organisers were super organised and sent out great info. Volunteers were so friendly and couldnt do enough for you. Runners chatgy polite and supportive. The route was very muddy in parts, almost got blown away running along the river trent. This made it challenging and a very slow run for me but enjoyed the scenery emensly. Best of all organisers tried to be Eco, went cup free, used sugar cane bowls at aid station etc. Cannot praise this race enough. Less Hills at the end though please guys 

Very hard conditions for me and really brought wrong shoes for the mud, but you never know. The event I felt was fantastically planned and support Ive never seen on any race. Thank you for a metalled and educating experience.

Bit of a hill at the start and finish and flat along the canal/river banks - very muddy in places.Great personalized / engraved medal at the end. Highly recommend Hobo Pace races

Awesome event again by Ronnie and the Hobo team! They really are some of the best run ultra events around!

The whole crew were fantastic so many thanks. I personally prefer more hills but I knew what I was entering (running with my girlfriend) so I can't say I didn't know it'd be a bit flat :)

Loved the event, the course was really good and well set out. Running down the canal toe path you get to see some amazing scenery. The aid stations were nicely spread out, and well stocked. The course is pretty flat and easily all runnable, it would make an amazing first ultra for anyone. And the soup at the end was a nice treat. Definitely recommend. 

The route is 90% trail on peaceful and scenic paths through rural Nottinghamshire following the two major tow paths/waterways in the area; 'Cuckoo Way' and the 'Trent Valley Way'. The event has four well stocked Aid Stations.
