The Shepshed 7 goes ahead on November 3rd, currently on its normal two lap course and will be going through the farmyard. We hope we’ll get 400 runners. We’ve been doing this event through the park for over 20 years now. In terms of this event, we are very interested in progress with the Bavarian Gate or the route from the Estate Road to the Sustrans route as an alternative to the farmyard, should that become unavailable to us. We really need to run this event on hard surfaces, so the footpaths aren’t suitable.
