🏃 Choose Your Distance – 7 Hours of Love!

How far will your love of running take you?

At The Love Run, you're in charge of your challenge!

Whether you're taking on your first 5K, stepping up to a half marathon or pushing yourself towards marathon or ultra distance, there's something for everyone.

Our event takes place on a 2.5K off-road circuit, with competitors choosing their target distance.

⏰ Race starts at 10:00am

You'll have seven hours to complete your chosen challenge, with the event finishing at 5:00pm.

🌳 A Little Love, a Little Mud and a Few Hills!

Don't be fooled by the romantic setting!

The Love Run takes place entirely within the grounds of Pengethley Manor, following a challenging off-road circuit.

There are hills to conquer, plenty of ups and downs, and possibly a little mud to add to the Valentine's fun!

Walk it. Run it. Enjoy it.

Whether you're chasing a particular distance or simply enjoying the occasion, The Love Run is about setting yourself a challenge and having a wonderful day doing it.

One course. Five distance options. Seven hours. How far will you go? ❤️

🏅 The Medals – Two Halves Make a Whole! ❤️

Some medals celebrate a personal achievement. Others celebrate something even more special — sharing that achievement with someone you love!

At The Love Run 2027, we believe every finish line deserves a little love, and our distinctive Valentine's medals are designed to make your achievement even more memorable.

Whether you're running together, celebrating a special friendship or simply treating yourself to a well-earned reward, we've got a heart for everyone!

❤️ One Complete Heart

Sometimes, the greatest love story is the one you have with running!

Choose our complete heart-shaped medal and celebrate your achievement in style.

Perfect for solo runners, those chasing a personal milestone or anyone who simply loves collecting beautiful running bling!

💕 Two Halves, One Heart

Two runners. Two achievements. One very special connection.

Our matching half-heart medals are designed to fit together to form one complete heart.

Run with your husband, wife, partner, best friend, running buddy or someone special, and each take home half of the heart.

Together, they create a lasting reminder of the challenge you shared.

And who says romance is dead? Certainly not us! ❤️

💗 A Half-Heart Medal

Perhaps your other half isn't running. Maybe they're cheering you on from the sidelines, or perhaps you simply love the idea of giving someone a little piece of your achievement.

Our single half-heart medal option offers another lovely way to celebrate the occasion.

Because you don't always need to cross the finish line together to share something special.

🏃 Run for the Love. Stay for the Bling!

Whether you're tackling 5K, 10K, a half marathon, marathon or ultra, your medal will be a reminder of the effort, determination and enjoyment that went into your Valentine's Day challenge.

And unlike chocolates, these hearts won't disappear by the following morning! 😉

Two Hearts. One Challenge. A Whole Lot of Love!

RUN WHERE YOU LOVE. RUN WITH WHO YOU LOVE. RUN FOR THE BLING! ❤️

🌳 The Course – Hills & a Little Valentine's Mud! ❤️

Love might make the world go round, but at The Love Run, it's your legs that will be doing the work! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Welcome to the beautiful grounds of Pengethley Manor, near Ross-on-Wye, where our Valentine's Day running adventure takes place.

Forget busy roads and crowded pavements. The Love Run follows a scenic 2.5K off-road circuit, winding through the Manor's grounds, with lovely countryside views and some cheeky hills thrown in for good measure!

It's a course designed to be enjoyed, although we can't promise your legs will still be feeling romantic after several laps! 😉

⛰️ A Few Hills to Keep the Heart Pumping!

Don't be fooled by the romantic name!

The Love Run may be full of hearts, but the course has a little bite.

Our undulating 2.5K circuit features some challenging climbs, giving competitors a satisfying workout whatever distance they choose.

For those taking on the longer distances, the hills will become increasingly familiar as the laps tick by.

But every climb is another little victory, and every completed lap brings you closer to that beautiful Valentine's medal.

🔄 One Circuit – Your Challenge!

The beauty of our lap-based format is that you can choose a distance to suit your own ambitions.

Whether you're running 5K, 10K, a half marathon, marathon or ultra, everyone shares the same course and the same wonderful atmosphere.

With a seven-hour event window, there's plenty of opportunity to challenge yourself, enjoy the scenery and soak up the Valentine's spirit.

Perhaps you're running with your partner, encouraging a friend through their first 5K or seeing just how many laps you can complete.

Whatever your goal, every lap is an achievement worth celebrating!

❤️ A Course to Fall in Love With!

Beautiful countryside, hills, fresh air and a friendly atmosphere — what more could you ask for on Valentine's Day?

Well, perhaps a lovely medal at the finish!

So lace up those trainers, bring your sense of adventure and prepare for a little romance with the great outdoors.

THE LOVE RUN 2027

We recommend:

• 👟 Trail running shoes with suitable grip for off-road conditions.
• 🧥 Weather-appropriate running clothing, including a waterproof jacket if conditions require one.
• 🧤 Gloves and a hat for colder weather.
• 💧 Water and personal hydration supplies. (We have water)
• 🍫 Energy snacks or nutrition for longer distances. (We provide some sandwiches, tea & coffee)
• 📱 A fully charged mobile phone.

Please dress for the conditions on the day rather than the weather you were hoping for!

❤️ Looking After Each Other

The Love Run is intended to be a friendly and welcoming event, and we ask everyone to help maintain that atmosphere.

Please:

• Treat fellow competitors, marshals, volunteers and spectators with courtesy and respect.
• Follow instructions from the race organisers and marshals.
• Be considerate when overtaking other runners on the circuit.
• Stay on the marked course.
• Take all litter to the designated disposal points.
• Inform the race organisers if you decide to withdraw.
• Report any injuries or safety concerns to the event team.

Looking after each other is just as important as reaching the finish line.
