No reviews of the High Peak 18km Trail, and nothing on what people wore. Both are things no organiser publishes and every runner wants before they enter — how it actually went, and what was on your feet.

The course
What you’re in for
An out-and-back of eighteen kilometres with 488 m of climb — proper ascents and easy running on the way down. Navigation notes and a GPX go to entrants. There are sweepers and finish pace runners you are welcome to tuck in with, and the timings are set for a walk-jog rather than a race, which makes it one of the gentler ways into this kind of event.
