Watersons Hale 10K & Ashley Hall 3K

The Watersons Hale 10k & 3k offers participants a memorable running journey through picturesque and vibrant landscapes around the town of Hale and Ashley. The main 10K route kicks off from the heart of Hale, weaving its way past charming shops and bustling streets before venturing into quieter country lanes filled with rolling hills and lush greenery.
As runners make their way to Ashley, they will be treated to a serene setting that culminates in the impressive grounds of Ashley Hall. The race's finish line is set amidst these grand surroundings, offering participants not only a scenic end but also an opportunity to take in the beauty and history of this historic venue.
In addition to the 10K event, there’s the Ashley 3K race tailored for younger runners. Held within the secure confines of Ashley Hall grounds, this shorter yet equally exciting race takes place just over an hour before the main event. The course is fully closed off from traffic, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for young athletes looking to compete in professional conditions.
This dual-event setup provides both seasoned long-distance runners and budding junior racers with unique opportunities to challenge themselves while experiencing the charm of Hale and Ashley’s natural beauty and rich historical backdrop.
