A land rover will take a bag to the top for each competitor so when you finish you can collect your warm clothes, pause to enjoy the spectacular views (on a clear day!) & jog back down for post-race tea & prize-giving. Please bring your own cups for tea & coffee to cut down on plastic waste.  Pre-entry will help the organisers in planning for numbers but entries will also be available on the day from 12:00 & will close at 1:20pm (this is to allow time to transport your gear to the top). You must carry full waterproof body cover including hat & gloves and entries are restricted to over 17s.

 

In the event of poor weather an alternative course may be run at the Race Organiser’s discretion.

There is also the 1km Glas T Toe Tickle fun run at 2:30pm for any younger runners who wish to take part.  Entry is free & all runners will receive a certificate & treat.
