The most fun on your first steps to run

Please note, Walice’s Woodland Fun Run 2020 has been postponed indefinitely in light of government advice regarding Coronavirus. We are reviewing our event calendar for 2021 and will update this page once we have more news. 

Ever wanted to do a fun run but feel a bit daunted?

Don’t worry, let us look after you – you’re already one step ahead by just thinking about this event. Go you!

Walice’s Woodland Fun Run will take you around the trees and leaves, twist and turns, bump and jumps of Fairthorne Manor. Take it slow or fast and conquer the fun course.

Complete your first steps all whilst having fun on Walice’s Woodland Fun Run.

You’ll have an amazing time and you’ll achieve things beyond your dreams – Health and happiness awaits.

If you’re an experienced runner and want to try a new course we have a unique cross-country course ready and waiting just for you.
