What is it all about?

Running Shoos is an initiative developed to build on Shoosmiths’ commitment to corporate social responsibility. By inviting any and all Shoosmiths employees and clients to take part in a variety of charity events, the initiative aims to raise money both for the national Charity of the Year, and for the local organising Office Nominated Charity.

Not just for the hard-core runners amongst our contacts, Running Shoos aims to cater for everyone’s fitness levels, and activities planned include all kinds of running events across the country. So whether you would like to do a leisurely 1km walk followed by a nice cup of tea or a gruelling 2 day adventure race followed by a days rehydration, your local Running Shoos co-ordinator can help.

The grand plan is to help members of staff, clients and friends of Shoosmiths to participate in events that they would otherwise not have the opportunity to do so, whilst raising money for charity.

SAAB Salomon Turbo X - 23rd Nov 2008





What is it?
"The sand course, hills and swamps were quite special. Will I be back......you bet, not going to miss a single Turbo X race now!" - Runner's World Forum 19th May 08

"Brilliant race. Better than Hellrunner. Best course marking I have ever come across. Was on my own for a while and never had a doubt I was on the right path. Excellent goody bag - technical t-shirt in all sizes… Loved the winding paths through the woods... Lovely friendly atmosphere. Can't wait for the next one." - Runner's World Forum 19th May 08

"Best race I’ve done this year... fun and really filthy" - Runner's World Forum 20th May 08

ARE YOU UP FOR THE CHALLENGE ?

Saab Salomon has a brand new Trail Running Series for 2008 and TURBO X will be the grittiest and messiest of them all! Set to push your stamina, agility and perseverance to the limit, you'll wade through watery wildness, working your body till it burns as you clamber through mud, marsh, sand and bog and charge your way through the roughest off road track you can imagine!

Where?

The entrance to the track to the car park is off Oakhanger Road just past the Louisberg Barracks in Station Road on the B3002 in Bordon, Hampshire. The B3002 crosses the A325 Farnham Road and the race will be signed from the traffic lights by the Fire Station. Follow the track to the parking area.
