The route mixes trail and road surfaces, including tarmac, grass, gravel and cobbles, and is fully waymarked and marshalled. The course uses closed roads for the start and finish in Kendal town centre and includes trail sections along Scout Scar and Cunswick Scar, passages across Underbarrow Road and Kendal golf course, and a steep, narrow cobbled descent back into the town. A water station is available at about 6km. Timing is by RFID and baggage storage is provided at registration. Dogs are not permitted on the route. Prizes are awarded to the first three male and female finishers and to top finishers in veteran categories. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
