The Maverick Adidas Terrex Original Surrey 2023
Saturday 13 May 2023 | Polsden Lacey
DOG ENTRIES HAVE NOW SOLD OUT
The Maverick Adidas TERREX Original Surrey event starts in the historic National trust grounds of the Edwardian country house of Polseden Lacey. Starting in the heart of the Polesden Lacey estate the three routes consisting of long gradual climbs, alpine-like forests, technical descents and stunning views, await for trail runners of all abilities looking for a challenge.
Our Original Surrey event may be nestled within the grounds of a peaceful picture-perfect estate, but don’t be deceived, as all three routes have a serious amount of twists, turn, up and downs that will require some fierce leg work.
All three routes take you on an adventure through ancient woodlands, the notorious Surrey hills and onto the North downs Way. Please note, there is no outpost on the Short route.
The Maverick Race Surrey events are amongst our most popular events of the season due to their proximity to London, with direct trains from London Waterloo to Dorking taking less than 1 hour, or the drive being 90 minutes from London City straight to the race start.
