ALISON WAINWRIGHT
Great race in the Howgills, a new area for us and for quite a few competitors. Lots of steep climbs and tough descents which resulted in some sore legs and over-estimated timings. An unbelievable win for Philip Rutter from Helm Hill Runners with a score of 680 (only 2 check points missed). First female is Victoria Thompson of Helm Hill Runners with 447 points. We had no real latecomers. It was great to have homemade soup and cake back. Overall a great day out!

NEW! 2 DAY KONG MOUNTAIN MARATHON
We are all active and passionate fell runners. We live in Thorpe near Dovedale in the Peak District and go out on the hills as much as we can.
Alison has been the race organiser for the Mini Mountain Marathons since 2014 and we have taken over the organisation from Dark & White from 2015.
We organise these events as a hobby and get our children involved in the organisation and running of the events. Our aim is to deliver professional events with a great atmosphere.
Alison and Janneke spend many hours baking the cakes and preparing soup for the events. Erwin and Chris do all the computer stuff, finance and marketing and everybody gets involved in preparing the routes, recceing, setting out / collecting controls and of course on race day.
We are also supported by the National Trust and Harvey maps
And we support the John Muir Trust
