Monday 8th July 2013 at 7.00 pm Blaise Castle Estate, Henbury, Bristol
The Westbury Wipeout is a challenging multi terrain adventure run for young people
age 8 and above, taking them on a tour of the woods, streams and hills of the Blaise
Castle Estate. The event is 3k long (2k for 8 and 9 year-olds), and includes a long
downhill section, some scrambling up banks and slopes, and plenty of splashing through
water and across mud, rocks, roots and steps. The course is only lightly marked.
Survivors will have to overcome the ‘Descent of Doom’, ‘Shark Lagoon’, ‘Ditch of
Destruction’, ‘Crocs Leap’, ‘Hills of Torment’, ‘Festering Fords’, ‘Trolls Bridge’
and ‘Satans’ Scramble’….. See ‘Route Map’ for location of challenges.
As a fun run, the emphasis is on adventure and challenge, and participants are advised
that, once they start, the only way out is on their own two feet ! All participants
will receive a T shirt printed especially for the event. Please collect this, together
with ‘Instructions for Participants’ and ‘Water Safety Leaflet’, at least 15 minutes
before the start of the run.
The British and Irish Junior Fell Running Champion, who does much of his training
in Blaise Castle, will be along to act as ‘Hare’ for the run, and to greet the runners
as they finish.
Run registration / assembly point - Westbury Harriers Clubhouse at Blaise Castle
(just next to the main car park and playground). The run starts at 7:15pm. Please
arrive in plenty of time to be able to register.
