Sinfin Running Club has a thriving fell community, with over 50 different members taking part in the 2025 championship.  The club also participates in the British Fell & Hill Relays and organises weekends away to take in events further afield.  With such enthusiasm for fell running at Sinfin we’ve decided to organise our very own race. Welcome to the first ever….

​Bluebell’s Revenge

Based on the popular Bluebell race organised by David Denton for many years, we’ve added some spice to the route resulting in more climb and extra distance (hence the new name).  With a marked course and plenty of friendly marshals, the race takes in two short loops before moving onto a longer figure of eight course around the Chevin.  Please note that there are some short sections of open roads on the route, runners must ensure that they take additional care on these sections and follow instructions from marshals when crossing the road.
