1 mile 485 ft
Starting by the bridge at the bottom of Brunthwaite Lane this is an uphill road race, not for the faint hearted
This is a fun event which regularly attracts several hundred runners who take on the challenge of the tough uphill course. The course winds its way up Brunthwaite Lane, with little respite, until finally turning the corner the finish is in sight where the road meets Light Bank Lane. Many of the competitors are local primary school children as the race is promoted in several of the schools.
