Lantern Pike Fell Race

[Dr H Tool]

Don't forget the classic Lantern Pike Fell Race. It is part of the Hayfield Country Show and Sheepdog Trials, which is celebrating it's 30th anniversary this year. It's at Spray House Farm, Little Hayfield in the High Peak on Saturday 15th September at 2pm. The show is on on the Saturday and the Sunday and is open from 10am until 5pm, there is a bus over form Glossop as the parking is restricted.

I believe the Fell Race has some good prizes this year, oh and an unbreakable record. Although I think a local lad may be going for it!

See you in the race and the Craft tent.

Nothng's unbreakable Doc, and I hope you are going to make an appearance at the Redgate Coal Race this weekend - after doing the fell race of course .

Oh, decisions, decisions. Lantern Pike or Three Shires? I still can't make my mind up.

Thought they were about 3 hours apart....

You should go and do this - it's the last junior championship race, so you can support the little blighters! (Some not so little!). Was a brilliant show last year.

Good point, Dom. I could do Three Shires (starts 11.00am), break the record - say 1hr 30min - then drive very fast to Hayfield arriving about 1.45pm, get the free bus to Little Hayfield - about 10mins - just in time for the 2.00pm start there. I could probably break Ricky Wilde's record there as well.

Then I'd wake up...

And only if you didn't get lost in the mist like last Sunday

Howdy,
Will be along on the day with the family as it's the last one for my Hayfield fell champs. counter. Any course tips? (Not run this one before)

Looks like a good day out for the kids as well: http://hayfieldshow.co.uk/

[Skarsnik]

there's a fast steep descent on road near the finish...
otherwise, it's mainly compact trails. Profile will be on the hayfield site

As long as it's not as tough as Mount Famine I'll be happy!
