Litton christmas cracker

[RaceTheSweeper]

Which way round is the race going?

Anti-clockwise. We have changed the start due to a bottleneck risk. We have now put that fun bit at the end :-)

Looks good. I used to travel daily on the A623 in the 90s and I always remember a signpost pointing to a place I thought was called Litton Cressbrook. Turns out from the map its two different places

hahaha, we came across a guy yesterday looking for Millers Dale village. He looked very sceptical when we told him. "but thats just a couple of houses?". Hope you can make the race :-)

Looks good Sue. Is there an entry limit, as I'd love to race but am unable to book anything in advance at the moment....

Hi Paul, We dont think we will reach a massive amount in the 1st year. If it starts getting a bit mobbed I'll post up an alert. Transfers will be allowed on the day too at no extra cost as injuries and last min change of plans can affect us all. Look forward to see you there if you can make it :-)

Looks like it's going to have quite a few there. Pre-entries have closed but entries on the day are allowed. We have a pre entry list of 77 with a 200 limit. We have done all we can to make sure the race is a good one. See you all on Sunday. Lets hope its a good, fun and proper fell race day. http://tideswellrunningclub.uk/club-...cker-entrants/

I'm considering coming down for this, the route looks like a long version of the Strid Wood which would suit my current abilities. Lots of dale trails by the looks of it, nice. Never been to this area before, closest i've got is Hayfield, the dales look very steep sided are we in Gritstone territory?
