The route is one of the best runs in the area. It is extremely popular with runners, cyclists and walkers alike. The route a looped circuit of the Ladybower and Derwent reservoirs. 1 x 5 mile and 3 x 15 mile. This will be marshalled and signed. The rest is a mixture of trail, track and a small section of country road (hardly used). Although the elevation of the route is mainly flat, there are undulations.

Kit List

The run is on a mix of trail track and small sections of country road. Whilst we recommend a trail shoe, road shoes should be fine. There is the potential for mud in areas, so please don’t expect them to be clean when you finish. We will have an aid stations at miles 5, 20 and 35. We recommend the use of water bottles or hydration back packs and the carriage of food also. At the aid stations, there will be an area for each individual to store their own nutrition, clothing, special drinks. Please ensure you are self sufficient. The weather in the Peak District can change in a second. With this, it would be a good idea to bring waterproof jackets/ warm kit etc. Some of the runners will be running in the dark, so a head torch or similar is required. This can be stored for you with additional nutrition etc. Please pack some extra warm kit for the end of the race.
