What is it?
A four-leg relay in the beautiful scenery of Southern Snowdonia. There will be 200 fell running teams from across the country so it’s a real celebration of everything fell running. Teams consist of 6 athletes who will compete over 4 legs, 2 short, one long and one navigation exercise.
Race format
The race is a tough one, with 4 legs each throwing up their separate challenges, including hard climbs and steep descents on difficult terrain. It is important that all runners have the navigation & mountain experience to cope with these conditions…. it is not a race for novices wanting to enter their first fell race.
Two legs are run in pairs and two legs are run solo (so 6 runners per team) and teams compete for a number of prizes across different categories including Open, Ladies, Mixed and Vets teams.
Summary of legs:
| Legs | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 – Solo Short | Craig Rhiw-erch 4.2km/513m |
| 2 – Pairs Long | Craig Portas 11.1 km/758m |
| 3 – Navigation | map provided on the day, 6-8 miles |
| 4 – Solo Short | Moel Cwm yr Eglwys 4.6 km/481m |
Please note: No recces are possible because the race is being held on private land.
Terrain: Steep mountain fell terrain. Full FRA kit and experience of fell running is required.
