Event overview

The Wolf Moon Trail Half Marathon is a trail half marathon organised by First Light Adventure in Sutton Scarsdale, Derbyshire.

Course and facilities

The route starts from Race HQ at Rock Lane and runs through Sutton Spring Wood before climbing to the Five Pits Trail. The course undulates to a turning loop where an aid station is provided. Runners return along the same trail; finishers receive a Wolf Moon medal. At the finish there are cake and hot drinks by a campfire. Free car parking is available at Race HQ, Sutton Scarsdale Hall and nearby lanes.

Race rules and support

The event enforces a time limit to ensure the field returns within the organiser’s schedule. An optional 30 minute earlier start is offered for slower athletes or those who do not feel confident running at dusk or in the dark; this is not a competitive wave start and is not intended for runners who expect to finish inside 2h30.
