Run 1 (5km) + Bike (20km) + Run 2 (5km)

This new event at Halton Training Camp near Lancaster has a very picturesque course with the run mostly on footpaths next to the River Lune. The bike course is an undulating one-lap route with great views towards the Yorkshire Dales, Lakeland Fells and Morecambe Bay.

Run Loop (5km)

From the start on the banks of the Lune the run takes a clockwise course, using Denny Beck Bridge in the village of Halton and the Lancaster Canal Aqueduct.
