NEW FELL RACE - By Paul Jackson
Heptonstall Festival - Saturday July 9th - AS (6 miles / 1500 feet)
Following the success of Heptonstall Fell Race in March a group of Calder Valley and Todmorden Harriers based in Heptonstall have been asked to put on a fell race for Heptonstall Festival.
The challenging route starts with a quick run up the cobbles to the top of the village, followed by a steep descent to the Blue Pig. After the steady ascent to High Brown Knoll you turn tail and head back the way you came.
Race starts at 11.00; Village gala, food stalls, music, and beer kick off at 12.00. Should be a great day out. Entry on the day (£4). Large car parking field (£1). Full details and map; www.heptonstallfestivalrace.org.uk

aaFanatastic!! Delighted the race gets a mention on the Blog - I'm a CVFR runner organising the race. I was impressed with A&T turnout at our Midgely Moor race in March. Really hope you can join us again for this new race - the gala/festival should make for full day out/ BTW its also Hebden Bridge Arts Festival so there'll be loads going on besides the race.
