The Grantham Cup 2016 - 10k off road race
Sunday 17th April 2016, at 10.00am.
Belton International Horse Trials, Belton, Grantham
Following the unprecedented success of the 2015 Grantham Cup 10k trail race, Grantham Running Club are pleased to announce that in 2016 we shall again be staging one of the region’s favourite and most unique off road running experiences.
The Grantham Cup 10k trail race is integrated into the world-renowned three day Belton International Horse Trial event. It is a 10k cross-country race, run through the beautiful grounds of the Belton House Estate near Grantham, Lincolnshire. The route takes in a mixture of gradients and offers some stunning views from the heights of Belmont Tower, as well as passing through the majestic deer park.
Due to the popularity of the 2015 event, the start time has been moved to 10.00 am to try and avoid some of the crowds that will inevitably converge on the final day of the horse trials.
Grantham Running Club are proud to be supporting local charity, with profits going once again to Kesteven Rideability, a fantastic organisation operating locally at Hough on the Hill, offering disabled adults and children the opportunity to experience equestrian disciplines such as Dressage, Showjumping and Endurance, all in a welcoming and supportive atmosphere.
