Event overview
You will encounter mud, rocks, trees, and more mud! With a 13 hour cutoff, the event is also suitable for quick walkers. This event, like all our events is a partially self-navigational route. Route map, step by step route description and GPX file will be provided. There is 3322 ft of elevation over the 30 mile route, so if youβre looking for a nice flat race this one probably isnβt for you! Starting in Whitby you'll make your way down the Esk Valley Railway Line, before joining the North Yorkshire Moor Railway Line, eventually finishing in Pickering. You'll pass eight Railway Stations - the hint is in the name. Much of the route runs alongside the railway so you may spot a steam train or two! New for 2026 - Full tracked by Open Tracking. Trophies for 1st male, female, and non-binary, and 1st male and female 50, 60 & 70 categories.
