West Yorkshire Winter League 2025/2026 Event No.2 Dewsbury Road Runners
Date: Sunday 30th November 2025
Start Time: 10:00am

Race Venue/HQ:

The race HQ is Wheatley Business Park, Hagg Lane, Mirfield, WF14 8HE

Car Parking:

With the increase in the number of runners we ask that you please car share. We have the use of the car park in the mill complex, use above post code. Further car parking can be found on the streets leading to the mills from Mirfield.

Please park considerably and don't block any driveways or accesses.

Facilities:

There will be portaloos in the car park close to the start / finish field. Water will be provided at the finish. 

The Navigation Tavern in Mirfield will be opening for us from 11:30 for post race drinks. Please remove / change your muddy shoes. There will also be the infamous raffle (we welcome any donations) so don't forget to bring some cash.

Course:

The route is the same 'lumpy' route we have used in previous years with a lap of the fields to start, before heading up through the woods (lump number 1) along the edge of the golf course before running down 'The Eiger'. Please note there will be a time cut off of 30 minutes to get to this point (roughly 2 miles), after which time you will be directed down the road through the car park back to the finish field.

 

Onto the tarmac passing the cattle grid and round to the bottom of 'The Wall of Death' (lump number 2) all the way towards the farm buildings. From the top of the hill, you're then running through farm fields before descending towards the lower farm. Don't think the hills are over though, as you've now got to run back up 'The Eiger' (lump number 3) ahead of the flowing descent back down to the finish field. 

 

The course will be signed and marshaled. Any runner retiring from the race must make a marshal aware AND report to the finish line marshal / timers.

 

Please make sure you respect the farmers land and property, no climbing over gates or fences, if there is a queue for any stiles or gates, please wait your turn.

There is also a small car park at the Golf Club, further residential parking in the area behind and another small car park on the right towards the moor, past the cattle grid. Please see attached map.

Course:

 

The race starts at 10.30am and is the same as in previous years on the beautiful Baildon Moor, near Baildon Golf Club which is a 5-minute jog from our Rugby Club HQ. Trail shoes will be fine unless we get a lot of rain before the race where a better grip would be advantageous.

The start will run up the side of the 18th golf fairway, but we anticipate golfers will not have reached the 18th by 10.30am. They will however be using the nearby 1st tee and we ask that you respect our good friends at the Golf Club doing their chosen sport and keep away from that area.
