Flying Gazelle Running are hosting a first ever event on the glorious Redlands Coppice Trail, Dorset. One trail loop. 6 hours to run it as many times as you can. Run it once, you get a medal. Or run it the most, and get rewarded with podium prizes!
Redlands Coppice is a hidden gem set in the heart of the Dorset countryside in the quaint village of Piddletrenthide. With far reaching views across the undulating hills of West Dorset’s greenery, filled with tunnel forests, hills and descents, and single track paths... it really is a trail runners dream.
We value the runners experience on the day as a whole, rather than just when they are running. That's why we'll create an event village at Redlands Coppice, inviting local small businesses to showcase their luxuries. Think swanky food vendors to replenish those lost carbs, and awakening coffee hubs to restore that buzz. We want to enhance the community spirit and atmosphere on event day, and make it the kind of day you can bring friends and family along with you.

Flying Gazelle Running is a family run project based in Dorset, England. We have a passion for running and wanted to express this by creating race events that are flexible and tailored to you.
As qualified Clinical Psychologists working in the NHS, we have experienced first hand the benefits that getting outdoors and walking/running can have on a persons physical and mental health. So this is our way to promote running, make it fun and interesting (and also challenging), and support mental health by hosting events each year in which 100% of profits go to mental health charities. We also plant 5 trees alongside every entry, to improve our carbon footprint.
Our events are for any and every runner, from the beginner to the seasoned pro. The difficulty of any race is determined by how much the runner puts in. You can walk, run, or sprint... we leave that up to you.
