Under the current circumstances, we are unable to make definite plans for the 2021 Otmoor Challenge which would normally take place in June 2021.

We have, therefore, decided to postpone the event, in the anticipation that the situation will improve and allow us to promote the event, in safe and enjoyable conditions, later in the year.

We hope, therefore, to be able to run the event in September or early October 2021.

Water Stations
At intervals around the course are 4 checkpoints providing water, first aid and communications back to the control centre at the start.

First Aid
Mobile, well-equipped first aiders patrol the course, and a fully equipped paramedic with vehicle is also available on course. In case of injury between checkpoints, a "Last Runner Marshal" on a bicycle sweeps behind the runners.

Safety
Runners and walkers should note that the road sections, although not busy, are not closed to vehicular traffic during the event, and they must follow the rules of the road and take due care. Course marshals provide direction at entrances and exits from roads. There are signs warning motorists of the event and an escort vehicle leads the way on roads. We recommend that no headphones/earpieces be worn by runners while on the road sections of the race, so that they can hear approaching traffic and instructions from marshalls.
