Organiser's description

The UK’s (the World’s?) only overnight, Winter mountain marathon. This event gives the classic mountain marathon a new, darker twist, packing 2 days worth of running into one Winter night. As daylight diminishes, most folk head indoors, for a few, it will be the time to lace up and head out into the hills. Running in the mountains at night is an experience that teeters between adventure and apprehension… Lake District National Park - final location to be announced.
