Langdale Marathon and Half Marathon
A stunningly-scenic route in the Lake District. A beautiful, challenging course set with a backdrop of some of the finest scenery the Lake District has to offer. This isn't a flat, boring course designed for an outright PB, it's an undulating (some may say hilly) route designed for its views and the sense of achievement. Just like the Lakeland Trails events, we encourage you to walk a bit and soak up the views but we'll be equally cheering those speedy competitive runners as they power up the hills!
