The Avebury8 Nine is a 9-mile-ish trail race which takes place in the Wiltshire countryside, starting and finishing at Avebury, a World Heritage Site famed for its stone circle. The route follows byways and bridleways and can be wet, muddy, rutted and difficult under foot. Race HQ will be at the Avebury Sports & Social Club, just beside the stone circle on the Beckhampton Road. The start will be in Bray Street as usual, and the end of the race will take runners over the Neolithic 'causewayed enclosure' of Windmill Hill, then back to the village High Street to finish next to the club house. (In the event of flooding of the fields coming off Windmill Hill we may have to make some last minute route changes, but the finish will still be at the Sports & Social Club.) Commemorative mugs, by White Horse Pottery, for all finishers. Winners' prizes. And cakes!
ARC Permit 18/424
Race information will be emailed to all entrants during the week commencing 12 November. We will try to accommodate swaps provided we receive the replacement runner's information by 22/11. Email us if you want to make a change: avebury8@marlboroughrunningclub.org.uk
All profits from the 2018 race will be donated to the Wiltshire Air Ambulance
