Event overview
The Winter Wipeout! is a deep winter fell run held on 10 January 2026. The route is a roughly half marathon (ish) distance that climbs to the summit of Hedgehope and returns to the start at Ingram Cafe. The course is fully marked and staffed with marshals. The organiser notes the route is not aimed at beginners and that participants must carry the required winter kit. In past years the event has included sleet, snow and strong winds. Finishers are offered warming soup on return.
