Date:  Saturday 3rd Feb 2024

Distance:  42 miles (Medium) – don’t enter the 30-mile option by mistake.

Ascent:  6100ft/1870m

Entry is via Sientries, but if you try to enter you will see it is showing as full.  Karen says there are some places reserved for Runfurther members though, so if you contact her by email she will send you a password to enable you to enter – providing the places haven’t all gone (karen at runfurther.com).

The race starts and finishes in Barley, and follows the waymarked Pendle Way.  This follows farmland and moorland, including the summit of Pendle Hill (557 metres).  The time of year means you may need to be prepared for severe winter conditions if you want to complete this race safely.  Pendle Hill is very exposed and can be brutal in winter.
