Organiser's Description
Have you done 50k? Now looking for the next step up?
Why not try our 40-mile event - With just over 5,000 ft of elevation, it.’s a good way to work up to 50 miles.
Set off from Wadsworth, just above Hebden Bridge at 7am, you should be up by Stoodley Pike for sunrise, if you are lucky you could get some spectacular photos!
4 checkpoints plus hot food at HQ means you will be well fed.
2 of those checkpoints are indoors, meaning proper toilets and somewhere to shelter should the weather not be on your side.
That doesn’t sound like enough?
Completed 100k & working towards the big one?
Why not do it twice…
28 hours to complete 80 miles means you get sunrise and sunset.
HQ acts as your 5th checkpoint & soup is available there and hot food at the finish.
The route is half open moorland, half road, but don’t let that put you off, they are small, quiet country lanes and tracks, and we feel you will be ready for the gear change by the time you are 20/40 miles in. The last few miles are back on moorland, but this could make it a fast course. The weather in October could also mean dry feet are a bonus.
Cut offs
the 80-mile loop has 28 hours to complete, this means you have to be out of CP8 by 8am Sunday morning.
There are no cut offs on the 40 mile loop.
Drop bag
Those running 80 miles can have a drop bag at HQ for the halfway point.
Registration
Wadsworth Community Centre from 6am Saturday 18th October
Post Race
There will be hot food and refreshments.
You will recieve your bespoke medal and the top 3 male/female will recieve our very special plaques.
