Chepstow Harriers Running Club

Sunday 22nd April 2012

If you prefer your races to be characterful and challenging then Offa's Orror is for you.
It's hilly. It's muddy. It's tough. And it's located in wonderful countryside.

Offa's 'Orror is a 20k multi-terrain race on and around Offa's Dyke in the beautiful Wye valley
close to the village of Tintern (home of the famous Cistercian Abbey).
The route is mainly on footpaths and forest trails with around 480m of climbing.
There is virtually no tarmac, so off-road shoes of some sort will probably be needed.

The course will be well marked and marshalled and there will be 3 drinks stations.

What competitors have said:

"No other race has made me ache the next day like this one did! Gorgeous scenery made the first climbs fade into insignificance .... the next climbs along with the heat began to get uncomfortable but the final climb and descent was nothing short of suicidal!!! Then the stunning run along the river for home was going well until someone stuck a cheeky last hill in right at the end just for good measure. Great organisation, great cup of tea at the end and the cakes were worth writing home about. Well done to Chepstow Harriers."
