About Pumpkin Plod

Taking place on 25 October 2026, the Pumpkin Plod is a timed trail running event at Ferry Meadows country park in Peterborough. Runners can choose between four-hour and six-hour formats, completing laps of a 5.3k multi-terrain loop that uses gravel footpaths and grass. The standard four-hour entry involves five laps (equivalent to a heavy half marathon distance), with options to run six or seven laps depending on preference. The six-hour format typically sets runners at nine laps, with the possibility to increase their lap count within the time available.

Base Camp at the start serves as the focal point for the event, with an aid station positioned on each lap for refuelling. Registration takes place at the Lakeside Centre on the watersports side of the park. Runners should bring their own bottles or cups for refilling at aid stations. Road trainers are recommended, though trail shoes are optional depending on ground conditions.
