Welcome to The Great NorthSouth R#n
Where you all run as one! It’s not the Medal at the finish (there isn’t one), it’s the T-shirt at the start!!
A social 19.8 mile ‘Hash House Harriers’ trail run through the Isle of Wight’s beautiful countryside. From Egypt Point to St Catherine’s Lighthouse (the most northern point to the most southern point).
Welcome to the Twelfth The Great NorthSouth R#n. The main theme of this run is to have fun, socialise and still put in some great mileage. There are no marshals for this event, so you are on your own to some extent, however the ethos of hashing is for everyone to look after each other. This is NOT a race, but it also is not a walk! If you feel you can’t do the whole distance, you are very welcome to hop on one of our buses to skip a leg or two! The run is also supported by a number of support vehicles.
The run has four legs, all of which are marked by a trail of wood shavings and chalk arrows. The first is 7.3 miles to The Blacksmiths. The second is 5.7 miles (13 miles) to The Chequers Inn. The third is 3.7 miles (16.7 miles) to The White Horse Inn. The fourth is 2.7 miles (19.4 miles) to St Catherine’s Lighthouse. Then run (or walk/crawl) the last 0.4 miles (19.8 miles) up to The Buddle Smugglers Inn for a well earned pint!! There are no official water stops, so please drink at every pub even if its water!
