SUNDAY 8th NOVEMBER 2026  - ARC Race Permit: 26/0646
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.

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. Follow the link to the 2026 Route.

To celebrate Bitton Road Runners 40th anniversary, this years Sodbury Slog t-shirt pays tribute to some of the iconic designs from previous years. You can order Sodbury Slog t-shirt here.
