Getting There:

Organisers Instructions:
In addition to the "Level B - Standard" mandatory kit, all runners must have a torch suitable for running at night - preferably a head torch. A back-up torch, or spare battery, is also recommended. This is the third and final race of the Night Challenge series. And with the history of the Hellfire Club and the weekend that it is there are sure to be some scares to be had on the night. Unlike the tunnel in Glen of the Downs the one on this race is a natural feature and does not have any lights!

Volunteers (Running)

Check with race director if they have a need for people volunteering and running. Race directors need a minimum number of people available throughout the race to make the race work so non-running volunteers are preferable. While it can be helpful, volunteering in a volunteer and race capacity does not count towards qualifying for end of year prize
