The Pike
The Pike is an 8-hour running event held in Rivington, UK, on a mixed-terrain loop around Rivington Pike. Participants are invited to run as many repeats of the 5 km loop as they can within the 8 hours. Each loop combines road and trail sections and includes repeated ascents of Rivington Pike with about 670 ft of elevation per loop.
Runners receive a finishing time and a medal regardless of how many loops they complete. The event accepts solo entries and team entries of up to four people. Entry fees are listed between £30 and £36. The event is presented as inclusive and flexible, with a loop format that lets participants choose how many laps to attempt during the 8-hour period.
Course surface is mixed and the route is based on repeated 5 km circuits around the Rivington Pike area. The format emphasizes repeated loops rather than a single continuous out-and-back course. A date is provided for the event and basic entry information is given. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
