Pierrepont Plod – Summer 2026
This is a trail event and while it does include a stretch along the rowing lake, expect mud, roots and puddles. The event will be a six-hour challenge on a looped course around the amazing Holme Pierrepont Country Park and Watersports center. You may attempt to complete as many laps as possible over the full six hours, or you may choose to finish just one. This is a perfect course if you’re aiming for a PB as it’s pretty flat with just the odd small lump to climb!
Holme Pierrepont is quite prone to flooding with areas and pathways closing and opening quite regularly through the wetter months. Because of this we have created two different 5.4km loops with two different starting points. One on the North side of the Regata rowing lake near the cafe and one starting from a car park to the south. While we will prioritise the south route, we will confirm in the weeks beforehand, which route we will use. Both are roughly 5.44km with 22m and 27m of elevation.
