About The Hurt
The Hurt demands respect from trail runners willing to embrace mud, rocks and relentless climbs through Hurtwood Forest. Taking place on 10 October 2026 near Guildford in Surrey, this event offers two distances—15 km and 21 km—both routed through technically demanding single track, rocky footpaths and underwater bridleways that live up to the race's name. The terrain is unforgiving and designed as a challenge rather than a personal best pursuit.
Runners will navigate road crossings and a short section of back road alongside horses, mountain bikers and dog walkers who share the forest, so awareness and courtesy are essential. Water stations punctuate the courses at regular intervals, and the route is clearly marked with marshals positioned at key points, though participants remain responsible for safe road crossing. Registration takes place on the morning from 0645, with both distances starting at 0830.
