Wow, what a return that was. More than 100 runners took part on a perfect day for racing.

Missed out in 2013? Don't worry, our Race Director has confirmed we will be doing it all again next year.

Put the date in your diary. Sunday 27th April 2014, 11:00am start.

Enter as an individual or why not encourage a few friends to form a team?

Are you a speed demon? The first male and female to the summit will receive the prize of King and Queen of the Hill.

The course covers approximately 7.1 miles of mixed terrain. The start is a 10-15 minute walk from the Monmouth School Sports Club which also serves as the race HQ and the finish. The course starts out flat for around 100 metres before climbing the Kymin road to the Round House, a local viewpoint at around 850ft. The opening mile or so will certainly give your lungs a workout. What goes up must come down and a gentle descent through fields and the bluebell carpeted forest tracks before a long flat finish along the Hadnock Road into the Monmouth School Sports Club.

The previous course record is 38mins 54secs, set by P. Wheeler in 1985.

New course record is 44mins 01secs, set by Luke James in 2013.
