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 and the finish is in sight where the road meets Light Bank Lane.
