Hi
Its essentially a trail or cross country race (or a poor man's fell race I supppose) . If it thaws there will be some mud, especially on the climb up to the monument but you should be ok with a reasonable trail shoe. There is a fair bit of road especially after you descend from the monument (and as this is downhill it will be slippy in studs if icy). Depending what you like its a nice event and atmosphere but i am not sure why its on the fell calendar
