We are very much looking forward to welcoming Junior runners to the Duddon Valley where we will be offering challenging but fun routes for each age group.
The Under 9/11 boys and girls will be exploring the area known as Dobby Shaw whilst the older age groups will venture a little further for each category with the Under 17 runners reaching Caw summit
The Under 19s will join the Seniors over the new Duddon Dash route that climbs up the Walna Scar Road to visit White Pike before finishing over Caw.
All routes will be fully flagged and lots of marshals will be on hand to offer encouragement and ensure the correct routes are followed for each race.
