Peak District
-
Scenic, Friendly, Fun
-
Descending into Castleton towards the finish just as the sun was setting was beautiful.
-
The climb out of Bamford is a bit of a slog on a tarmac road heading towards the edges.
-
Anybody who wants to do a fantastic low key trail race.
-
Keep it slow and steady at the start. You are straight into a pretty big climb at the very beginning.
-
Peak Running are a fantastic organisation. Their events are for everyone of all abilities.
You have the option to start early as a non competitive entry so you can complete the route in your own way and see some lesser known areas of the Peak District.
There is also a 35k version of this event that covers the first half of the 70k.
