"Early bird discount is available." "Race HQ is in The Calder Pub opposite Sainsbury’s, Huddersfield Road." "Start time: 1810:5K, 1915:10K." "The 10K consists of 3 laps of a fast course with only 14.3 metres climb per lap (43 metres in total) - each lap will be given its own split time using our live chip timing technology - starting and finishing in the parking area of Sainsbury’s and travelling straight down Mill road and eventually onto Armytage Road - when you reach Clipper Logistics and the road end, you return on the other side of the road back to the start for each lap." "The 5K uses an out and back 3 lap course - with only 22 metres of climb, it offers an amazing opportunity to PB - each lap has only 3 turns, many long straights and you will receive your lap splits for all completed - each time you go through the gantry section you will receive a roar of encouragement. - with music on every corner it really is a fun way to do 5K." "Chip timing." "Medal is extra." "Both races are on fully closed roads on flat, straight and fast courses. A rare opportunity to race on a weekend evening on the road.

"It's a 10 minute walk to the start line at the disused Melrose Railway Station." "The route follows an anti clockwise direction, flat 1st mile followed by a tough uphill 2nd mile where the fittest runners will be able to run it all. After that it is a gradual downhill followed by a left turn heading onto a trail path which then takes you around the Eildons but not up them! You will then come out of the forest turning left onto the road which leads you down to Rhymers Stone. The last mile or so is down hill which will then see you finish at Melrose Abbey."

"Collect race number and chip on the day." "There are different prices depending on when you enter." "We believe we have found a little gem: a 2 lap event that takes in the 3 beautiful villages of Wetheral, Cumwhinton and Scotby. So this 10M race has been given the name '3 Village 10'." "Venue is the Community Hall." "The route starts close to the Wheatsheaf Inn and finishes close to Wetheral Community Hall. Best described as undulating, the course starts at an elevation of 193ft and as a maximum elevation of 233ft over the two lap course you will gain approx. 389ft." "Chip timing."There is also a 3 Villages 5 on Wed May 27th - a new race for 2020 - that is presumably one lap of the course of the 3 Villlages 10.

"Experience the 'Puddle' and the 'Hill of Pain". On the short section that crosses the moor (either side of the 2M mark) it has been known to become very boggy if the weather has been wet. I guess that's the Puddle. And there's a hill in the last 1K of the course - I guess that's the Hill of Pain. "Medal."

"Collect race number and chip on the day." One of the Lakeland Trails series of events that are taking place on Mar 21st, Apr 18th, May 9th, Jun 7th, Jul 11th, Sep 5th, Oct 3rd, Nov 7th and Nov 8th. There is a discount for entering a series of events. Early bird discounts are available for each series and also for each event.
"The Derwentwater Trail Races use a circuit along well marked and marshalled footpaths and bridleways, taking in panoramic views of Derwentwater, the surrounding peaks of Skiddaw and Blencathra and the northern fells. Underfoot conditions are generally good for those used to trail running, but expect a bit of everything! The course has no stiles, so there is nothing but the hills and the infamous Glendereterra bogs to break up your rhythm." "Start times: 1100:10K, 1115:5K, 1300:15KTrailChallenge, 1400:15KTrailRace." "Chip timing." "Spot prizes." "Technical T-shirt - ladies and men's fit." "Fun runs for all abilities of children (under 12) within the finishing arena."

"Collect race number and chip on the day." Like 2019 this event is on a Saturday. "Uniquely tough run follows the undulating multi terrain course used in paratrooper selection - it was open to the public for the first time in 2008." "It can be run in your usual running kit or you can enter the TAB (Tactical Advance to Battle) where you run (wearing long trousers and 'military style' or hiking boots with ankle support) together with a bergen (rucksack) weighing 35lb (excluding food water)." "Chip timing." "T-shirt, medal." "You can also enter these races with your dog as part of the Canicross event." "There is also a 2M fun run for children aged between 8 and 15 years." Here's a link to a list of frequently asked questions.

This is the date that is given at www.runbritain.com. "Scenic and undulating road course through the heart of the North York Moors national park taking in Dibble Bridge, Hob Hole and Westerdale." I think it's more than just "undulating", and when I did it in 2003 I wrote 'scenic with about 6 uphill sections - excellent scenery and a friendly place' - I enjoyed it. "There are also supporting Junior Cross Country races." "Make it family day out - plenty of showfield attractions - exhibitor's marquees, children’s rides, trade and craft stands, children's races, live music, home baking for sale (highly recommended!) etc"

I've not seen a postal entry form yet. "Venue is the Village Green." "The course goes out of the village in the direction of Flawith, before turning towards Myton-on-Swale - the quiet countryside and roads continue on the way back to Tholthorpe - it is downhill in the last 200 yards to the finish on the Village Green by the duck pond." Although the map has some "ups" and "downs" marked, when I did it back in 2003 I found it fairly flat. In 2019, chip timing was used and you got a mug.

It's just that you run it in a different order! So for 2019, the race started and finished just outside Wistow, but still runs 13.1 flat miles on scenic closed roads south of York and north of Selby. For the novice runner this is still the perfect introduction to a longer distance. For the more seasoned racer it remains a genuine PB opportunity."
