Broomhead Chase

[PlumBum]

Reluctantly , due to saturated fields, the plug has been pulled on Broomhead Show.
However , Ben Rimmington-Wilson, the owner of Broomhead Estate, is happy for the Broomhead Chase to go ahead as usual.

Car parking will be at Broomhead Hall Farm and the registration / start / finish
will be in the show field, follow signs from parking area.

Please pass this information on to others that may not visit this forum regularly but may wish to participate in a 3.5 mile / 800 foot race with no tarmac what so ever and a couple of decent river crossings.

My contact details can be found in the fell calender, Broomhead Chase or Trunce.

Thanks in advance

I'll leave that to the front runners like SS, I'm more worried about the height of the stream if it rains again, I won't be going that hard after the Phoenix,

PB do I qualify for the TIT race if I do Two in Three
If nothings happening monday will finally be on the Trunce again.

Registration will be at the car parking area.
A 3/4 K walk to start / finish where there will be a gazebo as a kit dump ready for the 3/4 K walk back to your vehicles.

That's three quarters of a km, right, not three to four km??

Yes it will. Unless you want to come to mine and run to the start? This will be the best option to save carparking spaces.

Anyone want a cracking short, 3.5 miles / 800ft, race associated with a wonderful country show. Not a bit of tarmac in this course.
Race at 14:30 show starts around mid-day on Sunday 13th July from Broomhead Hall Farm, Sheffield - SE 244 962 (Dark Peak Map)
Good one for families as 40% of course is visible from show field.
Bradfield Breweries to be there this year, some nice local brews.

It's a great race with the 'Trig' just over half a mile from my house.

A fast down hill start followed by a stream crossing and a good climb to the trig, fast descent to the woods and another stream crossing.
Then theres that lovely sting in the tail...

Unbelievably I can't make it and will be down near Guilford in Surrey But I'll be back to collect the last T in the TIT race. Trunce on Monday
