ABOUT THE ROUTE
The Tibthorpe Loop is an easy to navigate, undulating but not technical trail half marathon through the beautiful Yorkshire Wolds. A generous 5 hour cut-off time means you can enjoy a day on the trails without the pressure of time.
The event starts and finishes at the eco friendly Field House Camping & Coffee Barn near Tibthorpe. Enjoy free parking, great facilities and a wildflower seed medal to reward your finish. £3 of the entry fee goes towards supporting local charities.
The route also follows the first 9 miles of the Wold Rangers Way Ultra and would make a perfect training run if you are taking part in the ultra marathon.

About the venue
Field House Camping & Coffee Barn is the host for the start and finish of the event. Set in the grounds of a working farm, with far reaching views across the Yorkshire Wolds.
On the day of the event, you can either drive to the venue and enjoy free parking on site, or cycle and benefit from indoor cycle parking.
If you need to do a lot of travelling, then there is also the option of camping if you have a motorhome or campervan; the site is off grid so it might be chilly for tents. Better still, you get 10% off camping when you sign up to this event.
The venue is great for friends and family to enjoy whilst you run. There’s comfy sofas in the barn as well as a rustic woodland children’s play area. The fully licensed Coffee Barn will be serving drinks and food throughout the day. Several walking printed maps are available at the Coffee Barn for friends and family to explore the surrounding area.
The Coffee Barn is dog friendly. But remember, you are unable to run with a dog on the course.
