Car Parking:
As
in previous years, car sharing is highly recommended. There is Limited
parking at race HQ. For those of you who cannot get into the car park
you should park on the roads around Station Road, Lowlands Road, Back
Station Road and Hopton New Road which is a 5 minute walk to the start.
There will be marshals on site to direct you to the start from Station
Road. Please park courteously for local residents.
Facilities:There will be some portaloos at the start area but there will be no changing facilities.
Course:There has been a slight tweak to the route since we last ran in 2022, we've made it slightly less annoying by taking out the additional lap of the field at the end.
The course is still around 4.9 Mile and still includes going up the Eiger!! The course runs through fields and woods, there will be tree routes, fallen leaves, rocks, holes (all covered by leaves) and there is a stile around half way round, photos will be added to Facebook the day before.
As always, the route goes through farmers fields, and near to a riding stables. Please keep an eye out for any livestock or horses on the course. Please also look out for people walking dogs who may be in the woods. You should not need to dodge shooting clays this year.
The Strava route is here https://www.strava.com/routes/3299866689065673672
We
recommend that you wear your most aggressive footwear you have if you
want any chance of staying upright. Please take extra care on the route.
In short, the course this year is not for the faint hearted.
Post Race Refreshments:
After the race we will be heading over to the Navigation Tavern, Station Road, Mirfield. (https://www.navigationtavern.co.uk/)
Please note, the Navigation will open from 11:30, so it will give you a chance to get dry clothes on and footwear. Please ensure that you do not wear muddy trail shoes in the pub. Food is available to buy from the Navigation (and it is nice food) There will be a raffle so any donations would be appreciated. Please bring cash for the Raffle.
We look forward to welcoming you on Sunday.DRR.
