- **Event Name**: Hounslow Training - Perry's - Lockleys - Pinnacles Return - 12/07/2026
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 12 Jul, 2026 at 10:00 am
- **Event Description**: The Hounslow Classic 17km and 43km are tough races!
The steep terrain, stairs, single tracks and terrain will challenge everyone.
Training on course has been a key factor in runners doing well at the event.

THE COURSE- The training course will start at Perry's Lookdown Car Park and descend the 2.5km of stairs into the Grose Valley. We cross the Grose River and climb the rough trail up Lockleys to the Lockleys Pylon summit. We then run along the tricky single track to the Pinnacles Car Park. We then return to Perry's. Optional turn around at Lockleys Pylon.

BLUE MOUNTAINS FITNESS is one of only a few companies with a National Parks and Wildlife ECO PASS licence to carry out run training on the Hounslow course. We have been training runners for 16 years to complete the arduous UTA course since 2011 and Hounslow Classic since 2015. We have highly experienced trainers who know the trails better than most. Head Trainer Tony Williams won the first Hounslow Double (68k/22km) in 2015 and was 2nd in the Hounslow Monster (43km/16km) in 2023 so he knows the course well! Run Trainer Di Kipp just won her 50-54 Female age group at UTA by 25 mins! We have many experienced Run Trainers.

We are NPWS ECO PASS licensed and insured to carry out this training within the National Park.

GEAR. We will be using this as a race day prep run and ask you to bring the Hounslow Classic Mandatory gear.
