Gathering Winter Fools Relay
The Gathering Winter Fools Relay takes place on 5 December 2026 and is based at Carlton Hall in Utley, Keighley. The event follows a circular route around Keighley using public footpaths, trails and quiet roads.
The course is run over four legs and is organised as pairs, with low level changeover points that are frequently located outside a pub. The final mile includes a route alongside Dalton Lane Mill and across Dalton Lane; the path is expected to be unaffected by a recent fire at the mill.
Entry is by team with a maximum of 40 teams. Categories listed are Male/Open, Female and Mixed. The published entry fee is £48 per team. Route descriptions, maps, a Strava route and a GPX file are available from the organiser. Team entries are managed via SiEntries; one person may enter on behalf of a team and team member details can be updated later.
On event day there are hot and cold drinks at the start and food at the finish; pies were provided in previous years and vegan and vegetarian options can be requested. Various team prizes are awarded. The event is organised by Keighley & Craven AC. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
