Saturn Running - Gilesgate

Dun Holm Challenge - Day 2

Dun Holm Challenge - Day 2 is part of a five-event series organised by Saturn Running at Durham Amateur Rowing Club, Green Ln, Old Elvet, Durham DH1 3JU. The course runs along a stretch of the River Wear with views of the Cathedral. The route is a trail run and is fully signed, so no navigational experience is required.

The event is staged as a seven hour Time Challenge. The minimum distance is 5 km, which is part of a full lap. A full lap measures 4.37 miles (7 km) and participants may complete as many laps as they wish within the seven hour limit. Organisers may use an alternate 3.28 mile course and will confirm this closer to the event.

Distances available:

• 3 km
• 5 km (minimum distance)
• 10 km
• Half Marathon
• Marathon
• 50 km
• Ultra Marathon
• Time Challenge entry for any lap total

Facility and service notes include toilets and changing at the race HQ, a bag drop near the start and finish that is unstaffed and left at participant responsibility, pay and display parking in nearby streets, and an aid table with drinks and snacks at the start/finish of each lap. Finishers who complete one lap receive a Durham inspired medal. Distance pins are awarded for half marathon distance and above. Goody bags and vegan options are available. Headphones are allowed. Events take place on public footpaths and participants should be considerate of other path users. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
