Race Date: Sunday 20th March 2016
The Wolfs Pit Fell Race, at almost 6 miles and 1500 ft of ascent (9.2Km / 467m), is a Short category A race which packs a punchy 600 ft climb almost from the off. The climb on well cropped runnable (for the strong) grass takes you onto the open moor for some single track and open moorland running, a final sting in the tail ascent leads you back to the head of the original climb, where strength permitting you can extend your legs for a final race down to the finish field. The Wolfs Pit gets its name from a feature high on the Shatton / Abney Moors.
This year, 262 runners finished the race including a healthy turnout from the Striders (19 runners). Well done to all competitors but especially to all the Striders taking part.
The race was won by Stuart Bond of Dark Peak FR in 38.47. The first woman home was Lauren McNeil (unattached) in 45.11.
