Saunders Lakeland Mountain Marathon Fell Race

Lakeland, United States • 5-6 Jul 2025

The Saunders Lakeland Mountain Marathon (SLMM) is a challenging two-day mountain navigation race held annually in the Lake District, specifically around Great Langdale and Mickleden. Teams of two runners navigate rugged terrain over six linear courses of varying distances (27 to 54 km) and technical difficulty, plus a score course where competitors select checkpoints to maximize points within 12 hours. The event tests fitness and navigation skills, requiring participants to carry lightweight camping gear and camp overnight at a designated site. Courses range from beginner-friendly to expert levels, with significant ascent and rough ground. The SLMM fosters a supportive atmosphere and contributes surplus funds to mountain access and wellbeing charities. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
