Hardmoors 15 takes place on Saturday 9 January 2027 and follows an approximately 17.5 mile circular route that starts and finishes at Fylingdales Village Hall in Robin Hood’s Bay. The event is limited to 150 entries, has a total ascent of about 1,700 feet (518 metres) and a maximum time limit of eight hours to complete the route. Entry fees are listed as £46 attached and £48 unattached.

The route includes three staffed checkpoints: Station Road, Ravenscar (around 4.5 miles and again at 12.5 miles) and Hayburn Wyke (around 8 miles). Food, water and coke are provided at the checkpoints. Competitors must pass checkpoints within the published cut-offs and log in with marshals at each checkpoint.

Mandatory kit must be carried for the duration of the event and includes hat and gloves, a waterproof jacket with taped seams, at least 500 ml of water or sports drink, a whistle, map and route description, survival bag, foil blanket, mobile phone, a cup for drinks, and fittings to attach a race bib. Dogs are not permitted.

If conditions require race cancellation for safety, no cash refunds are offered; vouchers or transfers to another Hardmoors event or the following year may be provided. The organiser’s rules allow marshals or medics to withdraw any participant deemed unfit to continue. Transfers and deferrals are allowed up to three weeks before the event; the closing date for transfers and deferrals is Friday 18 December.
