Saunders Lakeland Mountain Marathon : Sat 10 Jul 2027
The Saunders Lakeland Mountain Marathon is a two day mountain marathon held in the Lake District, England, for teams of two competitors only. Each day features navigation around a mountainous course; courses vary in length and are published annually, so specific routes change from year to year.
A principal distance listed for the event is 32 km (19.9 miles) with 1700 m (5577 ft) of climb, but courses of varying lengths are provided. Experience of walking or running and navigating in the hills is essential. The event is categorised as MM and is held within the North West District, with the exact venue to be announced with final details one month before the event.
Entry is by pre-entry only; there is no entry on the day. Entry fees vary by entry date, competitor age, and options chosen; a representative pre-entry fee is listed as £95. Minimum age is 14, with exact minimums depending on the class entered. Junior races are available for those aged 14 and over when accompanied by an adult, and reduced entry fees apply for competitors under 30 on the day of the event.
The event holds a permit and associated UK Athletics insurance from the FRA. Competition is within each course and teams compete in the event format rather than as solo entrants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
