Coniston
The Coniston trail event is based at Coniston Sports and Social Club and runs from the shores of Coniston Water into the Coppermines Valley, passing beneath the Old Man and taking in views of Old Man, Swirl How, Wetherlam and Dow Crags. The routes follow well marked and marshalled footpaths and bridleways on largely hard packed trails with occasional muddy sections.
The event features an on-site event village with food and drink stalls, race commentary, live music and an outdoor retail presence. Race numbers are collected on the day and must be worn so timing chips can be read. Results are published live after the event. Prizes are awarded in open and veteran categories with a single prize per person.
Safety and etiquette information is provided for competitors. Dogs are not permitted on the running courses and must be kept on a lead at the venue. In ear headphones are not allowed though bone conduction devices are permitted. Competitors are asked to carry their own water or bring a cup for water stations, to close any gates they pass through, and to be considerate to other trail and road users. Courses may include private land accessible only on race day and some sections require care or walking for safety. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
