A stunning race beneath the majestic pines at Bedgebury!
This event is open to runners of all abilities, from novices to experienced athletes and is perfect for spring marathon training. If 10 mile doesn't suit, why not try the 5 mile option? You're in for a treat...
The course uses an undulating route around the trails and paths within Bedgebury Forest. There are sections which are likely to be muddy.
Plus there's a brand new family event for aspiring junior runners!
This event is part of Bedgebury Forest 10 and 5 Mile.

There will be parking on site. Please follow signs to your designated distance car park. 10 mile runners will be parking within the Walled Garden with 5 mile entrants parking in the main car park. The area is also accessible by bicycle.
Bedgebury National Pinetum and Forest is just off the A21 in Kent. The race is best accessed by car and your entry fee includes vehicle admission charges.
And, for the junior racers is a brand new family event in the form of a junior race offering! This 2km race is chip timed and will give aspiring junior racers a chance to take part in their very own, dedicated event. The race will take place before the main race, on the trails and paths around Bedgebury and will be fully marshalled.
Because of the site location at Bedgebury, this will be a relatively challenging junior race but young runners will be cheered as they cross the finish line! The first boy and girl will receive a trophy.
Parents are responsible for collecting their children at the finish line. If parents are accompanying their children on this race then no additional entry is required. However, participating parents will not receive a chip time or medal. Come and support young runners with uproarious cheers!
This event is doing its best to work sustainably to ensure that the carbon footprint of the race is kept as low as possible.

A gorgeous bespoke medal and lots of yummy goodies to stock up on... it's a race I will definitely do again. The scenery is beautiful, the mud and hills are a fun challenge... Ellie S
The race was well organised and marshalled. The staff all being very friendly. A great race staged in a beautiful forest . I would definitely do this one again. Lucy B
I must also add that the marshalls were excellent. Always happy and cheering despite having to stand in the cold. Would I recommend this race? Yes. Would I do it again? Definitely. Last word - wear trail shoes! Mark R
The marshalls were well located throughout the course and were really encouraging, and remarkably upbeat considering how cold they must have been. At the finish we were handed a quality bespoke medal, and there was a a table with water, coke and biscuits to help with the refueling. I can't wait to do this again, I'm a definite for next year!
