Darren Holloway Memorial Race (Buttermere Horseshoe)

Loweswater, United Kingdom • 22 Jun 2024

The Buttermere Horseshoe trail run, also known as the Darren Holloway Memorial Race, is set to take place on Saturday, 22nd June 2024. The race is considered one of the toughest Lakeland races and offers a challenging course over the Buttermere fells. Participants can choose between the original Buttermere Horseshoe course or a shorter alternative, both of which are classified as "AL" and are not suitable for novice fell runners. The event emphasizes the need for experienced navigation skills due to potentially challenging weather conditions and the lack of route flagging on the fells. Kit requirements include the full FRA kit list, with mandatory kit checks before registration. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
