The Wingerworth Wobble returned for 2025 on Saturday 8 March. Despite a few weeks of cold temperatures and rain, the weather gods were on our side, bringing us a beautiful sunny and mild March morning…
Join us for the next Wingerworth Wobble on Saturday, 8th March 2025 at 10.30am!
The Wingerworth Wobble is back for 2025! Our 4.66 trail race returns, this time in association with our friends at First Light Adventure. Enjoy a short trail run along some of the hills around Wingerworth, just outside Chesterfield.
Perfect for beginners and those who enjoy a bit of a challenge with some lovely countryside views!
Race registration is at the local Deer Park Primary School, with the start line a couple of minutes’ walk away on Central Drive. From there, there’s a small bit of road running before your ascent up Nethermoor track and the beyond begins.
Then, join us after the race for some refreshments and a raffle. The local pub, The Barley Mow, will also be open from midday, and offers will be available for a post-race treat (go on, you deserve it!)
It’s a small race and spaces are limited. We’re now at full capacity, but you can still join the waiting list by following the link below.
