About the race
Hodgson Brothers Mountain Relay is a fell-running relay set in the Lake District Fells. The event is held at King George Playing Field, Patterdale, on the first Saturday in October. It features four legs run by eight runners per team (Open, Ladies, Mixed and Vet categories).
About 70 teams compete, making it the longest-running mountain relay in the UK. The course mixes hard climbs and steep descents on demanding terrain and requires careful navigation with no GPS allowed, so it is not a race for novices. Entry is by invitation/vetting, £130 per team, and the day has a strong social side. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
