STONE MASTER MARATHONERS SPRING TREBLE
Our Spring Treble series of trail races has become a firm favorite with runners of all abilities and is dedicated to the memory of our late member, David Upton, who instigated the series and was Race Director for many years. First held a couple of decades ago, the races are run over three consecutive Thursday evenings in April with the advantage of the lighter nights of the Spring Equinox getting us off the winter roads into Staffordshire’s beautiful countryside. Each event is based on a tough, off road, hilly course of around four to five miles and gives runners an early indication of their current form and fitness for the forthcoming season.
2026 Venues
‘Kibblestone Klamber’ , is at Kibblestone Scout Camp (reinstated to the series in 2019), and is two or three laps of the steep ascents and descents, loved and hated in equal measures for the experience which is unique to our Club. Kibblestone International Scout Camp, Kibblestone Road, Stone ST15 8UJ.
‘Marquis Mayhem’ our second race is at Cannock Chase, A race around the lovely Cannock Chase with a couple of ‘challenging’ hills to keep everybody entertained. Starts near to Marquis Visitor Centre, Cannock Chase WS12 4PW.
‘Common Plot Canter’ at Stone Common Plot, a new venue for 2026, it’s an undulating two lap course over meadows and through the trees, with a dash of gravel and tarmac thrown in to mix it up a little. Usually after the race there will be the Series Prize giving at Lymestone Brewery (adjacent to the Start/Finish) and the chance to share a well earned drink with fellow athletes. Lymestone Brewery , Mount Road Industrial Estate, Mount Road, Stone, ST15 8LL.
Stone MM extend a warm welcome to all our fellow runners whether club members or unattached, a convivial atmosphere is guaranteed. We look forward to your company!
