What is the difference between the 10km, challenge and race
events?
1) The 10km Trail - This takes place in the morning at every venue
and provides a great opportunity for the novice or rookie trail
runner to sample our events; as well as offering the more
experienced competitors the chance to really put their foot down!
2) The Challenge - Using the exactly the same course as the
race, this provides less competitive runners the chance to tackle
the day's longer distance course. This sets off exactly one hour
before the race and is ideal for those wanting to take it easy and
enjoy the views.
3) The Race - Setting off an hour afterward the challenge, but
taking in exactly the same course, this event is designed for the
more competitive amongst us and attracts a great range of abilities,
from elite international athletes and club runners, to those who run
regularly and want to test themselves against the clock.
What sort of trainers should I wear?
We would highly recommend wearing specific trail shoes for all of
our events, as a good grip will help with both the up and downhill.
What is the minimum age to be to be able to enter?
1) The 10km Trail - 16 years old
2) The Challenge - 18 years old
3) The Race - 18 years old
4) Half Marathon & Marathon - 18 years old
Is there an event for children?
Making sure the kids aren't left out, our children's Fun
Trails usually takes place over lunchtime, when mum or dad has the
chance to encourage the little ones around a 0.5km flat trail
course. These short fun runs for children under 12 are about having
fun and taking part in a big arena and all finishers are rewarded
with their very own special medal.
Do you provide maps of the courses?
We'd love all of our Lakeland Trailers to access race day maps for
all of our courses. However, because some of our routes cross private
land, which we work hard to secure access to, we are keen for people
not to run the course in advance of the event. Where we can provide
maps, you'll find these on the 'course' section of each event,
where you can also find slideshows of all of our courses.
Can I transfer or cancel my entry?
You can find full details of our cancellation and refunds policy here.
