This event takes place on Sunday 23rd June

Grimsthorpe Gallop is our 5th instalment of SBR Events 10/10 series. If you raced and enjoyed either of Thoresby10 or Rockingham10 you’ll love this trail run!

Set in the beautiful grounds of Grimsthorpe Castle,in the delightfully charming Lincolnshire countryside just 10mins off the A1. This event makes for a perfect summer race, whether you take on the family friendly 5k or go for the longer challenge of 13.1 miles.

The 4 routes take you past various delights within the private grounds including the castle, lake, tree lined tarmac avenues, ancient woodland along grassed paths and a victorian railway culvet. The train line no longer exists, but the 10 and 13.1 mile routes travel along this section and take you to a part of the world generally unseen by the public.

Like our other 10/10 races we hope you’ll come as a family and take the opportunity to enter the ‘little legs’ into the 5k race. A simple, not too challenging distance that we invite ages of 4+ along to. Plus ALL finishers receive a bespoke race medal!
