She Strides Women only 50K
The event is the fourth installment of a women only ultramarathon held in West Yorkshire. The course is a circular, marked route that starts above Hebden Bridge and returns to the same location.
The route travels through woodland, across open moorland and passes the village of Howarth. The course covers mixed terrain and includes approximately 1400 m of ascent. Higher sections provide views that show the route and surrounding area from above.
There are four fully stocked, vegan friendly checkpoints staffed by an all female crew. A 10 hour cutoff applies at checkpoint 4. Finishers receive a bespoke medal and can access hot post race food and drink. A volunteers cheer squad will be positioned at the bannered finish line.
Event entries include GPS tracking, baggage storage and a kit swap rail at registration, and free downloadable photography. A bar will be open for runners and spectators between 2pm and 7pm, and there is the option to purchase a cotton or technical finisher shirt. The event base is at Wadsworth Community Centre, Billy Lane, Old Town, Hebden Bridge HX7 8RY. There is on road parking around the village and organisers advise car sharing where possible because this is a residential area. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
