The November Nightmare

The November Nightmare

Sunday 27th October daily until Sunday 3rd November 9.00am daily
Can you handle the nightmare....
Choice of 10K, Half Marathon or Marathon Distance each day.
Your choice of a single, day, couple of days or all 8 - it really is up to you.
New this year we have a payment plan available to spread the cost.


Now in its 9th year, The November Nightmare will push you to your limits.

Back again for 2024, the event ‘runs’ over 8 days – do you have what it takes to take on the Nightmare? You have the choice of 10K (7 miles on the 2nd weekend), Half (14 miles on the second weekend) or Full Marathon on each day. Here at How Hard Can It Be Events, we will do everything we can to help you achieve your goal! Each day is a race in its own right, so 8 days = 8 awesome medals! PLEASE don’t forget you can also enter each day individually in any combination of days.

If the thought of The Nightmare isn’t enough for you, why not enter the two races taking place the day before? The Pumpkin Marathon and The Spooky Halloween Challenge, on 26th October 2024, make an awesome challenging Shropshire 10 races in 9 days.

Taking place from Sunday 27th October daily until Sunday 3rd November in Telford, Shropshire, the three venues are no more than 5 miles apart making accommodation easy to source. There are countless B&B’s in and around Ironbridge, which is situated directly in the middle of the two venues, and a Youth Hostel in Coalport puts you on the doorstep of the railway line and village hall venues.

There will be very well stocked aid stations for runners, with lots of drinks and supplies and friendly supportive marshals to help with your personal challenge.
