This 24 mile route will appeal to runners and walkers that are either looking for a great introduction to marathon distance events or athletes that are already established marathon runners, and are looking to test themselves on a relatively fast hilly course. With an estimated walk time of 6-12 hours and run time of 4-8 hours, this promises to be an adventure worth remembering.

Registration for this distance will be at the The Knucklass Community Centre, Glyndwr, LD7 1RR between 0730-0830, with race brief at 0845 and race start at 0900.

Parking is available at the finish line at the Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre, School Road, Craven Arms, Shropshire, SY7 9RS. The Discovery Centre is a charity, and as such cars parked here will be charged £5, all of which will go to support the Centre.
