Hannington Hike
6th Hannington Hike, an LDWA challenge by the BBN group, starts at Wellingborough Grammarians Memorial Sports Field, Northamptonshire. It offers two distances, 26.6 and 15.5 miles, across countryside. The event fosters a friendly atmosphere with checkpoint navigation; route descriptions must be downloaded and printed in advance, as on-the-day descriptions are not provided.
The entry includes drinks, biscuits at the start, snacks at checkpoints, and a light finish meal; vegetarian and meat options are catered for, with vegan options possible but not guaranteed. Maps for the routes are required. No on-the-day entries; dogs not allowed.
Finishers receive a certificate and badge; triple-challenge awards exist. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
