Run Rabbit Trail Festival
Run Rabbit Trail Festival is a multi-distance weekend trail running event organised by the Race Harborough team. It is set on the Deene Park Estate near Corby and takes place on Saturday 8 and Sunday 9 May 2027.
The programme comprises three separate running challenges that can be entered individually or combined as The Quest. Completing all three challenges forms a cumulative distance of 56.1 km and earns eligibility for the Carrot Dash. The festival offers medals for finishers and a dedicated medal plus extra bling for full Quest entrants. There is a 10 percent discount when entering two events.
The route uses varied terrain with hills, woodland and mixed surfaces. One challenge tests repeated short efforts, another is an evening trail 10k, and the third is a trail half marathon across undulating ground. The event also includes festival activities and entertainment alongside the races to provide a shared experience for participants.
