Races within 15m of Hebden

[Derby Tup]

Hebden Bridge was closer to Airedale than I thought when we came over to do the Hebden t'other week so how about Rivock Edge? And KCAC Gathering Winter Fools Relay :closed:

That list is incredible, truly amazing really ! I can see why you "southerners" from south of Kendal get plenty of race time, you're a lucky bunch.

Living in Cumbria, there are plenty of races but getting to them is another matter at times. The fells sort of got in the way of the road builders. I could of course make like Joss and run to the races but thats not really within my capabilities.

Is no one from Hayfield (Pennine / KFR) going to attempt a challenge?
What wih the dark and white peaks to have a go at (15 miles)including an overlap as the crow flies with Saddleworth etc.
I can't be be aKsed to have go at listing but the Hayfield and Glossop website lists must be good starting points.
Should we stick to FRA calendar listings to avoid 'scope creep'?

PS. The Hayfield website lists over 50 peak district fell races within 10 miles of Hayfield - most of them in the FRA calendar.
Scroll to the bottom of http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~temples/hc/
Perhaps edging on another 50 if you more than double the area to a 15 mile radius (706 vs 314 square miles).

Now just how strict are we being here? And what counts - the start of a race or whole route? Because being really anal about I reckon the Tour of Pendle starts within 15miles of Hebden, but almost the whole of the race is outside the 15mile limit. I like the concept, I like the challenge, and I know Trig will be dead chuffed to have started such an active thread, but I'm beginning to think there's plenty of folks on this forum that are quite particular about things and might need the comfort of strict criteria. :wink:

So, JBF, let's hand it back to Trig to set the 'rules' - hopefully simple but watertight Trig! i.e. at least as good as FRA rules:sneaky:.

PS. I recall its about 30 mile drive from my house to my Mum's in Hebden, so there is defintely an overlap between Hebden and Dark Peak District catchment areas. But equally so for Holmfirth and they might catch further east too. Oooh...
