Nine Edges Endurance
Length: 20 miles
Location: Peak District National Park
It is a 20 mile off road event over some rough moorland and along gritstone edges, and some navigational ability is required. There is about 600 metres of height gain. You choose whether you walk, run or climb the route (climbers climb a route of their choice on each of the 9 gritstone edges).
There is also a hilly 35 mile mountain biking route option (same start and finish locations as the 20 mile route), roughly 60% off road, covering some of the best downhills in the Peaks.
It is a traverse from Fairholmes to the Robin Hood pub near Baslow. Transport back to the start provided (free). T-shirt and pint (or soft drink) also included in entry fee. OPTION to raise sponsorship for Edale Mountain Rescue Team. All proceeds raised go to EMRT.
Hikers/climbers have staggered start from 07.30-09.00. Mountain bikers can start any time between 9.00 to 10.00. Runners have mass start at 10.00.
Entries accepted on the day as long as there are spaces available (max 200). Entry Fee( GBP ) 20.00
