Loved it. This was my first half marathon event and I will hope to do it again I got up early and drove down from Manchester. Very glad I did. nice trail the people were lovely. Was very hot but that's not something they can do anything about but just wanted to mention it as there was not much shade so if its good weather wear a cap and wear sun cream.

A lovely day out. The Tissington Trail follows the route of an old railway line and runs north from Ashbourne in Derbyshire. It is a low key event and entirely off-road. The trail is of good quality and shared by walkers and cyclists. The weather was good - cool to start off with - not too hot. It is an out and back marathon with plenty of places for supporters to gather and see you run by - twice! There was easy parking at the leisure centre where it started.there was even a cafe at the start.

Organiser's description

Join us for this brand new marathon along the picturesque Tissington Trail. Brought to you by the same team that manages the Tissington Trail Half Marathon, the race will be an out and back race from the start of the trail at Mappleton Road to Parsley Hay.

The route gently climbs up through glorious Peak District scenery before turning round with a 13.1 mile downhill finish – so fast times are likely.
