Top endurance-event organisers Pro-Velo Support have announced details for their latest ultra-trail race this Spring. The Wiggle Lightning 12 is a smaller incarnation of the Adidas Thunder Run 24 which takes place at Catton Park later in the year.

We will be kicking off the year with a brand new event to make sure that the winter cobwebs are blown well and truly away. The Wiggle Lightning 12 is a twelve hour off road running event open for solo runners & teams to be held on Sunday 21st March. Set in the heart of the Malvern Hills, the run is being held in the stunning grounds of Eastnor Castle Deer Park.

The course will be as challenging as it is enjoyable, taking in the breathtaking scenery as the 10k route weaves its way up and down the hills and through the dense woodland. Ample course marking, a mid-point drinks station and plenty of marshals will ensure that competitors can concentrate on enjoying the challenge and tackling the terrain.

The Wiggle Lightning 12 gives runners a good taster of what’s to come later in the year, getting used to the format, team tactics & night running.

The Wiggle Lightning 12 takes place on the 21st of March, 2010, and you can enter now by clicking through the link at the bottom of this page – also keep those eyes peeled as MST will have free team and solo places to give away in a Lightning 12 prize competition in the coming weeks…
