Run for the Trees
Since 2020, 968 participants have run, hiked or walked a total of 88,172 miles (141,899 km) achieving 440 new trees for the National Forest.
The event runs from 1st – 28th February, and there are 4 distances to choose from – 50, 100 or 200 miles. Each of the levels has a mileage target for you to aim for during the 28 days of the event, which can be completed by running, walking or a mix of both.
Plus, there are ten virtual races forming the Forest Race Series that you can take part in as you accumulate your mileage, distances from 1k to 75 miles! These virtual races can be completed from any location and we have mapped out some fantastic suggested routes in the National Forest that you can explore if you wish.
You also have the option to join guided events. All mileage clocked up when running / walking solo and as part of the group events, count towards your total.
Once you complete the challenge you'll get a lovely wooden coaster and 20% off running gear at Derby Runner.
