Punk Panther

Punk Panther put on long days in the Yorkshire hills. Race directors Ryk Downes and Mark Limon run thirteen events a year, most of them offering everything from a half marathon to a fifty-miler on the same course — so you can enter above your comfort level and still get yourself home. Routes follow the long-distance paths of West and North Yorkshire: the Pennine Way, the Dales Way, the Nidderdale Way, the Welcome Way. Checkpoints are staffed by people who know the ground. They also run a season ticket, a Hall of Fame and a 1000 Mile Club for people who keep coming back, which most of them do.
