About Runners v Riders
Runners v Riders takes place at Friday Woods, a military training ground near Colchester, on Boxing Day 2026. This 4-mile trail event pits runners against cyclists in a competition for the Markham Cup, with the first six finishers across the line claiming the prize. The course covers muddy, uneven terrain with ditches and water crossings, demanding solid footing and trail-ready trainers.
The race uses a mass start format, meaning runners and cyclists begin together, and collisions between the two groups are possible. Participants enter at their own risk. On-site facilities include number collection and toilets, though parking is limited and there is no bag drop available.
