What you’re in for
New Year's Day map-reading from Merstham: twelve or twenty miles from a list of grid references, no support on the route, map, compass and pencil essential, all back by half past four. Fifty-second running. An LDWA challenge event, which means walkers and runners together, a route description to navigate by rather than tape, checkpoints with food and drink, and a meal at the end. Entry is through the LDWA's own system, places are limited, and the ones in this list tend to fill early.
Terrain and trail
North Downs chalk, woodland and field, January mud throughout. The navigation is the event — there is no route description, only the grid references. A trail shoe.
