About the race
Beyond the Lune Winter Edition Christmas Crumble Run takes place on 19 December 2026 in Kirkby Lonsdale. The start location is The Barn, the tap house of Kirkby Lonsdale Brewery, in the town centre. Two trail route options are offered. Both use local footpaths and bridleways and include on and off road sections.
The routes begin at The Barn where participants receive a pastry and a hot drink. A GPX file of the chosen route is provided and finishers receive a beer and a seasonal Christmas Crumble Box. The shorter route is fully signed with marshals. The longer route is partially signed and requires competitors to self navigate in potential low visibility or adverse weather.
The 20 km course includes steep fell sections and a trig point with views over the Lune Valley and the Lake District, then returns towards Devils Bridge and the river path to the finish. Practical details: minimum age is 16; 16 to 18 year olds must run with an accompanying adult. Entries open 20 August and close 14 December 2026. Entry fee is £25 for each distance.
A cut off time of 13:00 applies to both runs. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
