ran this race and have been back quite a few times to do the route again as its quite nice and not too far to drive. was looking at OS map and wondered if there was a route over the tops, extending the race route a bit. so instead of turning right and going up howden clough through the woods, keep going past the damm and turn right at hey bank again just going a bit through woods, up over nether hey, to row top and along the top of howden edge and meet the race route just above cut gate end.

any local knowledge about whether theres path, looking at OS map there seems a low key path, but im not sure and there is whether its runnable? any ideas appreciated.
