Organiser's Description
The event starts at 11:00 Saturday 11 July - giving you over 12 hours of running before the sun sets just after 10pm. Then it's 7 hours of torch-lit running before sun up at 5am, and the final push for the finish at 11.00 on Sunday 12 July.
OK after a little pressure we have given in! We are adding a 6 hour, 12 hour, and now a huge 36 hour option for 2020.
