Since 2018 the Ramathon has been a highly anticipated and popular event in the local running calendar. This year, we'd love you to lace up your trainers and take on the race for Treetops. Starting and finishing at Silk Mill Park, passing Pride Park Stadium, Alvaston Park and the stunning scenery of Elvaston Country Park, the Ramathon is the perfect race for all runners. Every step you take on the 13.1 mile, fast and flat course, in support of Treetops, helps to fund our vital work through central and southern Derbyshire. We ask all Treetops runners to raise a minimum of £108, which is enough to fund a night of Hospice at Home care.
