The Sandstone Trail Challenge 2011

Helsby Running Club is reviving the popular Sandstone Trail Challenge, which was organised by the Frodsham Fire Service until 2006. The event will follow the the 34 miles/ 55 kilometres of the waymarked Sandstone Trail start to finish — from Frodsham to Whitchurch.

This a long distance challenge for both walkers and runners, and not a race. The challenge takes place on Saturday 21st May 2011, and already has lots of entries.

Open to All

The challenge is open to everyone aged 14 and over who is fit and experienced enough to do it, although runners under 18 are not allowed.

To ensure the challenge caters for both runners and walkers, the Helsby Running Club has allotted half the reserved places for walkers. Runners should not enter as walkers and expect to be able to run instead; you will be held back at checkpoints if you arrive too early.

For more details of the route, numbers, cost, timetable and checkpoints, please see: www.helsbyrunningclub.org.uk/sandstone-details.htm
