Event overview
If you like beautiful races in beautiful places, like fun, like medals and like goodies then this event is for you.
You'll enjoy a bespoke medal and lots of goodies at the finish line.
This event is part of the It's Grim Up North calendar of runs, offering a range of distances and levels of difficulty so there is something for everyone.

How it works
Every time you complete a lap you will be given a band to put onto your wrist, you can do as many laps as you want and when you decide to finish you can ring the bell, this will indicate to the official timers that you have finished.
You can do as many laps as you wish if you pass the start/finish area before the 3 hour/6 hour cut off, meaning if you go through at 2hrs 59 minutes/5 hours 59 minutes on the official’s timer you can go on to do another lap (although we may not love you for it).
Lap measurements:
- 5K – 1 loop
- 10K – 2 loops
- 10 miles – 3 loops
- Half Marathon - 4 loops
- 16.5 miles – 5 loops
- 20 miles – 6 loops
- 23 miles – 7 loops
- Marathon – 8 loops
- Ultra Marathon – 9 loops and above
- The race starts and finishes in the same place
