Breezy in Brighouse & Special Solstice Run
Its Grim Up North Running stages this event in Brighouse with the exact venue to be confirmed near the canal. The route runs alongside the Calder and Hebble navigation canal on canal towpath, through a green section of the canal. The start location will be central to Brighouse with parking available. The course is an out-and-back on towpath and is described as not overly challenging.
Distances offered:
- 5k Summer Solstice, held twice
- 10k
- Half marathon
- Marathon
Feed stations are located on the course, typically around every three miles, and organisers aim to be cup less so participants are encouraged to bring a reusable cup or bottle. Marshals will be present and finishers receive a bespoke Solstice medal plus cake and other goodies. The event has a 6.5 hour cutoff and is licensed by the Trail Running Association. Bibs are issued on the day at registration. Parking is in a pub field and carries a £5 charge payable to the pub; car sharing is suggested. Large over ear headphones are banned and bone conduction or single ear in ear pieces are acceptable. There may be unmarshalled road crossings. Transfers and deferrals can be self served online up to 48 hours before the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
