EVERYTHING IS BETTER
ON THE TRAILS
"Dirty Trainers: Unleash adventure in your backyard, one challenge at a time."
ABOUT US
At Dirty Trainers, we're passionate about bringing the spirit of adventure right to your doorstep. As a seasoned runner with a love for epic events like the Montane Spine Race and UTMB, I've always cherished the idea that adventure can be found close to home.
However, I understand that these races often come with hefty price tags and extensive travel requirements, making them inaccessible to many. That's why I founded Dirty Trainers – to offer a series of challenges that allow people to embark on their own adventures without breaking the bank. Our aim is simple: to provide an opportunity for exploration and discovery in your own "back garden," without the need for expensive entries or elaborate gear lists. While virtual races have become popular, we believe in offering more than just a medal for a run. Our challenges are designed to be true adventures, taking participants on journeys through stunning countryside and past iconic landmarks.
Our inaugural event, the Robin Hood Way challenge, spanning 110 miles through the picturesque Nottinghamshire countryside, is just the beginning of what Dirty Trainers has to offer. Join us and experience the thrill of adventure right outside your door.
