Blacksheep 3 and 6 Hour Challenge

The Blacksheep 3 and 6 Hour Challenge is a trail running event held in Masham, on the edge of the scenic North Yorkshire Dales. Participants can choose to run for either three or six hours, completing as many loops as possible within their chosen time. The course features a mostly flat terrain with one steady climb, combining trail and road sections with stiles.

Feed and drink stations are available every three miles, and the route is marshalled and signed. Finishers receive a bespoke medal, a beer, and a sausage sandwich, with alcohol-free and vegetarian options. The event emphasizes sustainability with cup-free stations and encourages safe running practices. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
