SUNDAY 09TH NOVEMBER 2025
The Sodbury Slog is quite simply not for the faint-hearted. Forget roads – they’re for wimps – this is a lung-busting, trainer-ruining, hill-climbing, multi-terrain challenge held over and through some of South Gloucestershire’s most stunning countryside with a sting in the tail.
Following discussions with the Town Council, landowners and local farmers we have made a couple of changes to the route. The Leap of Faith and the return run up the High Street have been removed. Boggy Bottom, The Sheep Dip and The Pig Trough all remain.
Follow the link to the 2025 Route.
The route is around 9.5 miles depending where the cows are on Race Day and is a mix of tarmac, grass and muddy tracks. You can guarantee it will be wet, muddy, scenic, and as hard as you want it to be. It really is a race for all abilities and all standards. Just make sure you get out fast, tie your laces tight, and do not swallow the water as it's not all water. Mud is not like the t-shirt, optional. You can order your Sodbury Slog t-shirt here.

Please Note: You must be 17 years old on race day to enter. The course is not suitable for wheelchairs. Running with buggies or dogs is not permitted. Race entry is non-refundable and non-deferrable under any circumstances. The race has a cut-off time of 2hrs 30mins.
