BigMud | Marathon

Four trail running events based on the 4 classic elements…. Earth, Water, Fire and Air. Whether it's clawing over muddy hills and rainy valleys (Earth), battling over an ancient rugged coastline (Water), Pushing on under a relentless sun (Fire) or running under a never-ending sky (Air),  BigFeat Events have developed a series of races that will Challenge you, Awaken you and Inspire you. Inspired by the Classic Element Earth, we bring you... BigMud! Back for our fourth year, these spectacular but challenging courses return! The 1st event in the Classic Element Trail Series, BigMud symbolises the element Earth. We have 2 wild ‘n’ muddy, single lap trail runs around the scenic Meon Valley. You’ll have a choice of Marathon or 16 mile distances, each starting at Queen Elizabeth Country Park in Hampshire, with a 518ft climb up to the highest point in the South Downs, Butser Hill……. twice! Once at the top, you will then head out over the trails and rolling hills of the South Downs National Park, with the finish back where you started at the bottom of Butser Hill. This event will certainly challenge you but the spectacular scenery and friendly, encouraging atmosphere will leave you with an enormous feeling of accomplishment!
