Parbold Hill Race

[Ady In Accy]

Did this trail race last year and enjoyed it so am hoping to give it another whirl this year. Anyone else?

Im just trying to enter online but my paypal is messing around, can we enter on the day or does it fill up

Quite a big field last year but don't think there is a limit. I plan to enter on the day. Get there in plenty of time though Jamie.

Because parking is tight and there be queues for entry. Also gives you chance to relax with a couple of pints in the Farmers Arms before the race of course! See you there Penguin, make mine a Guiness.

Hey Penguin,

Make mine a guinness too, in fact 13.2

Yes you can enter on the day. Not sure if I will be doing this one yet as I may do a the Village Bakery Half Mara the following day.

If I don't do the Parbold Race I will be on the route taking photos. Was a very big turnout for it last year and a great race to do. Very tempted to give it a go?

Are you doing it again Ady?

not sure if it's strictly a fell race as I think it includes some road and trail, not sure as this is my first time doing the race. Is anyone else doing it this saturday? and is it a good one?

I'm doing it, my first time as well! Only found out about it today, a couple of the guys from the running club are doing it so I thought I'd tag along - if you see a Marshall's minibus parked up, that's us!

I've heard good things about it. I presume it's well marked/marshaled as there's nothing on their website about compulsory kit?

Starts off on the road, turns into a decent cross country trail type race, well marshalled and marked and will be well supported by runners and spectators
