Peak Raid Race 4 Alstonefield South
Peak Raid Race 4 is the fourth event in a series of four three hour fell races held in the Peak District. The Alstonefield race uses a score format: competitors receive a waterproof map, control descriptions and point values, then have three hours to visit as many controls as possible. Route choice and navigation are central to the event.
Entries may be solo or as a pair. Pairs and solos compete across 15 categories, including separate age categories for men and women, mixed pairs, and a parent or guardian with an under 18 category; the junior minimum age is 14 and the older member of a pair determines the pair age category. Competitors must complete at least two races to be eligible for series prizes; prizes are awarded 1st to 3rd in each category, with only 1st prize given if a category has six or fewer entrants. Best three results count toward the overall league.
The organiser requires competitors to carry the FRA Mandatory Minimum Kit: waterproof whole body cover (jacket and trousers with taped seams and an attached hood), hat, gloves, map (provided), compass, whistle, emergency food and a survival bag (not a blanket). Dogs are not permitted. Entry windows and fees are published for the series, including early, standard and late rates and a member reduction for FRA members.
