Trail Running Planet

A UK trail running site I built and run: 188 mapped routes across 29 regions, with filtering, grading and a free GPX file on each.

Real project

·

Jason’s own platform.

Starting point

Nothing. I wanted a trail running resource that told you honestly what a route involved before you drove to the start of it, and there was not one.

What I did

I built and run all of it: a route database filtered by region and difficulty, a free GPX file on every route, a grading system that states plainly what you are in for, plus challenges, a journal, and a submission route for other runners.

What happened next

As at August 2026 it carries 188 mapped routes across 29 UK regions, 3,935 km in total, with a free GPX download on every one.
