The Hill Race forms part of the Winster Wakes week long festival. Our run is an 'undulating' 4 miles using the lanes, trails and fields around our village. The course is marshalled at all the junctions and partially marked up. Its suitable for all levels of runner, challenging for the experienced runners and a great introduction to hill running for new runners. 

Route

You have a fast opening mile where you can challenge your 1 mile PB. We then hit the 1st bump of the day and go off road. Few rolling fields and a drop back down before the Dudwood climb takes you back above the village. The final 800m is a mad dash downhill through the village and ending a few meters before the beer garden.

This race has a Permit and associated UK Athletics insurance from the FRA.
