The Fox Trail 20k, 41k & 62k!
We are excited to announce the return of the Fox 62k, 41k and 20k event around Guildford on Saturday 25th May 2024!
The Fox is a stunning circular route around the Guildford countryside. Originally plotted by Richard Fox – and making use of the local railway lines – this unique race has options to suit all runners.
The 62K Ultra follows the Fox Way for the majority of the course, the 41K joins the route in West Clandon, whilst the 20K starts at Merrist Wood College in Worplesdon. All races finish in Goldalming – where there will be music and food aplenty!
There is also a 2 and 3 leg relay option available. Get a group of you together and enter the 41K or 62K Ultra race for just £180!

We have been extensively researching into what runners consider important, and sustainability is fast becoming the most important area. Click HERE to see what RunThrough is doing for sustainability.
T-Shirts at events have been a hot topic mainly around them not being a high enough quality to wear on a regular basis. So we have decided to tackle this by offering a T-Shirt (Women – CLICK HERE | Men – CLICK HERE) with a retail value of £22 for £12 with the addition of the event logo printed on the chest. These are to be collected at the Kit Stall on the day.
We can do this with our partner RT Kit as part of a strategic decision to not only raise awareness about the quality of the product but also to counteract the increasing costs incurred in event production in the current climate.
Here at RunThrough we are always looking for likeminded people to join our community. We always value an extra pair of hands and would love for you to come along and help us! From managing stalls at the event village to handing out medals at the finish, our volunteers are a critical part of what make RunThrough events so special! If you fancy volunteering with us as a volunteer at his event or any of our other events please click HERE
ONCE YOU ENTER YOU WILL RECEIVE A CONFIRMATION EMAIL. MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RACE PACK AND THE BIG DAY WILL BE SENT CLOSER TO THE EVENT – ENJOY!
The Courses
Additional Information
Due to the nature of this event it is going to be cup-less. This means that we WILL NOT be providing bottled water on course. We will have bottled water in our Event Village for pre race and also every finisher will receive a bottle of Water after they finish.
Instead, we will have Aid Stations on all the courses approximately every 10km. At these Aid Stations we will provide basic food supplies and un-bottled water in jugs that our marshals can use to refill you water bottles/flasks. We recommend that all runners use a hand flask, running belt or vest with which to carry essential items, as well as food and water.
