Wensleydale Full TriathlonRUN

About trip

Run start cut off: 3pm This is a course on open fell and runners must be prepared with minimum kit to run in the hills (waterproof top, map of course, whistle, emergency food and water). Anyone leaving transition without this equipment will be stopped and disqualified. There will be spot checks. The hills in summer can be dangerous conditions can change quickly. Numbers should be clearly visible on the front and called out at the check point at the summit of Great Shunner Fell. Athletes are responsible to know the course prior to the event and visit the check point. We have been instructed by the Lake District National Parks who maintain the paths that there must be no straight lining and the paths must be used otherwise the future of this and other events are in danger. The land owners and organisers would also like to ask another condition for you using the course in such a wonderful part of the world that you leave no trace (no litter). We have been fortunate that this has been the case for the last couple of years with marshals reporting no litter on the fell on the way down. Again the future permission for this race depends on you following this guidance. Route Leave Transition out of the community filed and turn right towards Hardraw. Keep to the left, and pass over the narrow bridge. Turn left into field path. Continue along meadow path as directed and marked by tape until Hardraw. At road turn left. Cross road as directed. Turn right onto Pennine Way. Continue to Great Shunner Fell summit. Circle Structure at summit and retrace to Finish in the community field at the entrance to T2.
