Thank you all for participating in the final race of the 2019 Kong Mini Mountain Marathon Series. We really enjoyed organising the series this year and would like to thank you all for supporting us! Today a great day, the weather was reasonable although quite misty on the moors later on. The race was won by Neil Talbott from Ambleside AC with an amazing score of 758 (23 controls!). Emma Stuart running together with James Chapman from Northern Fells RC was the first lady home with 547 points. Well done everybody! Provisional series results are also up. Please let us know if there are any errors. Prizes will be send out end of this week.

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 we support the John Muir Trust
Happy New Year everybody! Ready for another series of Kong Mini Mountain Marathons in 2020? The first race in the 2020 Series is from Abergwyngregyn on the Carneddau. We went there two years ago, but this time the approach is from the North. It is a beautiful area with several mountains over 3,000 feet. Deep valleys, steep crags and fantastic views over the Menai Strait. The start is from the Aber Falls Butterfly rooms cafe and hotel with easy access from the A55. We are looking forward to seeing you all again on the 2nd of February!
