← West Pennines Double Marathon Challenge
This event is described as tough, and it is!
I knew / know a lot of the route but was grateful I had my watch GPS and OS maps [which is recommended you have] as despite it being marked route it is easy to go off course / get lost due to the landscape and weather conditions
The route itself is beautiful, but at the same time tough and unforgiving.
In my opinion it's one for the more experienced trail and fell runner, with nav skills. I was lucky as a novice runner to not get lost, or to get pulled from the event due to cutoff
Great event series, nice bling. Not one for the feint hearted!
The staff at the kiosk, marshalls, Bolton Mountain Rescue, etc are all brilliant!
