Hodgson Brothers Mountain Relay

The Hodgson Brothers Mountain Relay is a fell running relay held in the Lake District fells on 3 October 2026. The race is run over four legs, each completed by a pair of runners, so teams comprise eight runners in total. The course includes hard climbs, steep descents and difficult terrain. Navigation is required in poor conditions and use of GPS is not allowed.

Teams compete in Open, Womens, Mixed Open and Mixed Vets categories. The Mixed Vets category requires four men and four women who are all aged 40 or over on the day of the race. The minimum age is 18 years, except that one 16 or 17 year old may run Leg 1 provided their partner is over 18 and written parental or guardian consent is given.

Entry is by club through SiEntries on a pre-selection basis. Entries open 3 July 2026 and close 23 August 2026. Entry is limited to 70 teams and places are allocated with priority given to clubs that have supported the event historically. The entry fee for 2026 is £100 per team; payment is taken only after a place is allocated and fees are non refundable once taken. Teams must enter their individual leg runners online by midday on 2 October 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
