An enjoyable route in the far eastern fells. After a steep start up to Loadpot Hill there is some good grassy running to the summit of High Raise and then a superb trail to Place Fell with fine views down to Patterdale. After dashing off Place Fell there is the small sting of Hallin Fell before the finish.
The race is a low key affair with £3 entry fee and a few prizes of wine and chocolates with any leftover profits donated to a good cause. Registration and race finish is at the Bobbin Mill. Please share transport if possible because parking is limited in the valley.
UPDATE 17/5/16: RACE BACK ON AFTER CANCELLATION EARLIER THIS MONTH.
