We are hosting a Winter Holly Challenge on the 27th January 2018 – ideal for those of you planning a spring Marathon with a start time of 10.00.

Entries are also open for the 2017 Holly Challenge, where you get the choice of running either a full marathon or a half marathon around the beautiful lanes of Lightmoor in Telford.  The race will be held in June with a start time of 10.00.


As with previous races, entries will be limited, so get in quickly.


Medal to all finishers and weather permitting join us for a pint and food after the race.  Entry is £30 (+£2 unattached).

We have been involved in event management for over 11 years working on all race distances from 5K’s right up to Ultra Marathons. We are actively involved in the course build of numerous OCR’s that take place in the UK. When we launched How Hard Can it be Events, we wanted to make running events fun and put on events that we would want to take part in ourselves. That is why we have worked hard to host smaller, friendlier events, where people can relax and get to know people and enjoy the whole running experience. We think this philosophy is what makes us stand out from the crowd.
