The race starts and finishes at Askham running around Helvellyn along mountain trails and bridleways, climbing to a height of almost 600m. The route is unmarked and runners must self-navigate.
The mandatory kit will be checked at the start line
Checkpoints are a mixture of self-clip control and manned so not all will provide food and drink. There are partial cut-offs in place at checkpoints 2 and 7. Hot drinks and food will be available at the finish line.
