Virtual Events

One of the highlights of the Club is the option to join in our two winter virtual events - always really popular and equally focussed on cake choices as the actual running or walking.  

Bonus Summer 2026 Virtual Event

We're putting on a bonus this year to virtually join Lakeland Trails' regular (and lover of slightly challenging challenges) Chris Davies.

Chris is setting off at 5am on Thursday 9th July to run all of the long Lakeland Trails routes at each Lake District venue before arriving in time to run the Ultra 100k. 

It's approximately 240km / 150 miles and we'll be watching his progress along the way.

Whilst he's going to do it over 3 days, the virtual will run until the end of August., following his route around the Lakes.

This is a bonus virtual event exclusively for Club members and you can enter now HERE 

Chris isn't wanting to do it as a fundraiser as it's a personal challenge, but has asked that we give the option to support either Mind Over Mountains or Every Life Matters so you can make an donation to either when you sign up if you'd like to.

See you on the virtual start line!

NB - Strava are making changes to how we can link to their site but we're not sure exactly what that will mean / when the changes will come into force.  It may be necessary to manually update your activities in the short term.

Regular Virtual Events

The Virtual Lakeland Trails starts in early January and has options of 75k, 150k and 250k visiting each of our venues in sequence and with a 'time limit' of 6 weeks.

The Virtual Ultra starts in late November gives you the opportunity to complete either our 100k, 55k or 23k courses over a period of 3 weeks.

NEW for 2026 - we'll add a new virtual event for August when we're taking a break from the trails.

The Virtual events are only open to club members and require an opt in when the entry opens.  Under 18s can run with members for FREE
 

Both Virtual events automatically sync your progress from Strava and your progress is plotted on the actual routes.   One runner's feedback that ours was the best virtual mapping out there!
