Does anyone have reasonably accurate distance and ascent for Kinder Downfall?
Thanks
Distance from last years race was 15.64km although I did manage to trail a Buxton runner who knew all of the short-cuts. I did log the ascent from my Suunto but can't find it anywhere... seem to remember it was about 1700ft
Garmin 305 gave 9.8 miles which agrees with nikalas' 15.64K.
Gave climb as 2820' but Sport Tracks "smoothed" this down to 2040'.
Have you been to the Hayfield races website.
Can post a link or just google it for the course profile (9.6mi, 1971ft).
Is this race full yet? (Someone might know without innundating Mr soles with emails)

This is as at mid Feb
entry list on Hayfield site just updated (5th March) - nearly 100 entrants already
including ME!
Have just entered the kinder downfall (hopefully). Is this a race where previous reccying is advisable?, or is the route 'relatively' easy to follow?
any advice would be welcome.
thanks
