Race distance: 4.5 miles
Organiser’s description:
Tideswell Fell Race is an annual race held during the village’s Wakes Week on a Friday at the end of June. The race has become a firm favourite in the fell racing calendar and attracts a strong field every year. It attracts individual runners and club runners from local villages, Derbyshire and increasingly from many other areas of the country, meaning stiff competition. In spite of this, it retains its charm and appeals to amateur runners and more determined serial fell race runners alike. While the race is relatively short (4.5 miles) it has some very steep ascents and descents, rising from a valley to a hilltop ridge and down again.
The race was won by Matthew Nichols of Matlock AC, in 27:57; and by Lucy Bednall of Buxton AC, in 31:18. 104 finished.
