Holgates have very kindly allowed us to continue using Hollins Farm as the race venue despite the campsite now remaining open into the winter months.So as with the last few years we'll need to limit our use of the amenities block area to accessing the toilets only and also have due regard to any campsite traffic using the farm access lane and yard area.
Parking
Please park in the front field area as directed by the stewards ,and try
to car share if possible - don't attempt to drive down the
farm/campsite access lane as this will interfere with the race route and
pedestrian circulation.

PLEASE READ THESE ADDITIONAL NOTES ON SAFETY
Take care! There may be slippy rocks and leaves underfoot. Watch out for tree roots and branches. Remember that it’s a fell race and not a road 10K!
Take
special care where the route shares Hollins Farm, New Barns and The Knott car
park access roads with vehicles.
You
must use the pedestrian gates on the course even if you have to wait your turn. IF YOU CLIMB OVER ANY STOCK GATES, WALLS OR FENCES YOU’LL BE DISQUALIFIED.
Look out for walkers and other
users round the course, and respect their rights. There may be conservation cattle on the land so please close any unmarshalled gates behind you.
All competitors must ensure that if they
retire from the race for any reason the fact is reported as soon as possible to
the race officials, including those at the finish.
Thanks. Enjoy the race!
