Course, kit and logistics
The start is at the lay-by on the A171 above Jugger Howe, grid reference NZ 945002 (what3words: soggy.december.configure). The route includes sections past Jugger Beck and up onto Jugger Moor, with views toward Whitby, Ravenscar, Scarborough Castle, the Wolds and Blakey Ridge. Participants must be self-sufficient during the event; water, coke and sweets will be available at the finish. There will be some flags and marshals, and a master map will be available at registration, but runners are expected to navigate themselves.
Mandatory minimum kit includes a waterproof jacket with taped seams (unless Paramo), hat and gloves, spare thermal top or jacket, emergency bivvy bag, 500 ml fluid, at least 60 g of food, fully charged mobile phone (with What3words or OS Locate/OS Maps advised), working compass, OL27 OS Map or Harvey’s North Yorkshire Moors map, and a cup for drinks. There is a 3-hour time limit. Ample parking is available at the start; a £1 per car donation to the National Park will be collected on the day. Dogs on short leads are allowed; dog-powered entries start five minutes after the main field and have an adjusted time limit. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
