Any details?

I may well have a go.

Great! There's about 150 entries at the present so plenty of slack for registering on the day. Wear trail shoes (no need for mudclaws) as most of the ground is pretty rugged. I can imagine some road runners being discomfited by the limestone hardcore that's been used to fill potholes. No stiles but plenty of different surfaces.
Here's the route:

John Schofield's UK results site has more details. It's on Runner's World and Fetcheveryone too. See you there. 'Ave a word if you come. I'm on the mic.

Think we walked the last couple of miles of that recently as part of a Kirkby Overblow > Spofforth loop. Really nice chips from the van in Spofforth on a Tuesday evening! (or was it Thursday?). Nice countryside too ;-)

Will try and make it, family commitments and injuries permitting.
