Whether you’re racing, supporting, or soaking up the atmosphere, this is a day not to be missed. The ATW Odyssey12 is back for the fourth year! It is more than just a running event, its a journey of self-discovery through the beautiful multi-terrain footpaths around StNeots. Along the way you will overcome both physical and psychological challenges that you have never previously experienced and once completed, you will stand tall in the knowledge that you have completed on your own, or with a band of special team mates, your very own Odyssey. The Odyssey course is the ultimate in spectator-athlete experiences with multiple opportunities to cheer on the athletes, including the ‘Tent of Enlightenment’ which you will run past on each of the flat 5.3km laps.  There's plenty of space for team tents, so bring your cheer squad along and make a day of it.

Welcome to Shipley Country Park in Derbyshire, an area steeped in history and was even mentioned in the Doomsday Book back in 1086! The land has been part of a stately home, hunting lodge, and, as always in this area, a coal mine. We’ll be putting on a series of events celebrating the butterflies (and sometimes moths) from around the world! Hopefully, you can join us and add the medals to your Rasselbock collection. The next in the butterfly series is all about the breathtaking Purple Emperor, usually found in south and centeral England milling around treetops before ocasionally heading down to ground level for sustenance. These vivid colours have been on a decline in recent years and are hard to spot as they’re so rarely down at eye level. We want to show off these purple wings and imortalise them in a spectacular medal!
