For the first time the run is being held under Fell Runners Association rules. The 2025 run is scheduled for Saturday 8 November. Entry fees are stated as £5 in advance and £6 on the day. Entries for 2025 are now closed and entry on the day is offered. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
