The Trionium Leith Hill Half Marathon

Leith Hill is the highest point in the South East, so whilst this isn't fell running by any stretch, it is a good, hilly, off road run.

The Trionium Leith Hill Half takes you to the top of leith hill and back. Its a great off road trail run, but is reasonably challenging. This is one of the Trionium race series and is therefore well organised. Changing, refreshments and bag storage all arranged. Even a cooked breakfast available at the end.

Distance: 13.1 miles

Runners: around 350

Profile: Trail run.
