2022 Rainow 5 - Summer Series
2022-05-04 19:30 - 21:00 | Rainow Institute, Stocks Lane, Rainow, Cheshire, SK10 5XR, United Kingdom
The annual Rainow 5 is back for 2022. Wed 4th May 2022.
Background about the event can be found here… Rainow 5
Information from RD Rachael (28/4)
Thank you for entering Rainow 5 Fell Race on Wednesday 4th May 2022.
We have a record number of entries — PLEASE can everyone CAR SHARE to the event. Parking marshals will be available to direct you to parking – we use the Rainow Primary School playground Post-code (school) SK10 5UB. Once full, marshals will direct you to park on roads in the village – please park safety and courteously not blocking any driveways. Please do not park in the Robin Hood pub car park. Consider parking in Bollington and jog over as warm up!
Please collect your race number from registration in the Rainow Village Institute (opposite Robin Hood pub) from 6pm onwards. Bags can be left here (no valuables to be left). Bring your own safety pins please. All runners must display their race number. The race starts at 7:30pm very close to the Institute building.
The race is run under FRA regulations – as such be prepared to have FRA kit – a recommended minimum for this race is a waterproof top. The race route map and GPX file is available on the race website: https://macclesfield-harriers.co.uk/rainow5. It is your responsibility to know the route (its on footpaths) – there will be marshals on each junction. Note the race is 5 miles (not 5K!). After collecting your number, if you do not start or do not complete the race it is essential you let a marshal or therace registration team know. There will be a “sweeper” at the back of the runners. The route does include kissing gates – if you are fast make sure you start at the front – otherwise be prepared to make the most of a breather at the gates if necessary!
After the race tea/coffees and cakes will be available to buy – please bring exact cash £2-£3 depending on your thirst and hunger and if possible bring your own mug to be filled(refreshment profits all fund-raising for Rainow Pre-School).
Low-key prize giving (with thanks to Red Willow brewery for prizes) will take place at 8:45pm in the institute, along with presentation of donations from your entry fees to Cheshire Wildlife Trust and Buxton Mountain Rescue.
I look forward to seeing you all & enjoy the race.
Rachael Lawrance
PS. Car share!

HIGH FELL SERIES - Two Riggs (2023)
2023-02-18 08:00 - 17:00 | Cheshire

2023 Trans-Pennine Relay
2023-03-04 10:00 - 17:00 | Sheffield City Hall, Barker's Pool, Sheffield, S1 2JA, United Kingdom
Note: You MUST be competent to travel on foot across open fell in Winter conditions (buddying up will be possible where necessary).

Various points about the Relay : It’s not registered; there’s no entry fee; the prize list is limited to the first team back and consists of five pairs of Running Bear socks; clubs are completely responsible for their own transport and their own runners and it’s a matter of honour to go to the designated “checkpoints” where there are neither marshals, flags or anything else.

The Relay consists of five legs, so provided the owner doesn’t mind someone else driving it for one leg only it’s possible for the whole team to use only one car, or, if preferred, you could use two cars and dedicated drivers.
Clubs can enter as many teams as they like BUT only one team selected as the best and the others equally spread ability-wise so as to make for some good intra as well as inter-club competition. Teams can be single-sex or mixed as preferred. Traditionally teams are named by their Clubs with pointlessly alliterative names based on the Club name and the theme for the current year, which I’ll send out close to the race date; as an example in 2000 the theme was “Foodstuffs” and we had such gems as Pennine Passion Fruits; Trafford Toasties; Macclesfield Mangoes; Glossopdale Goulash; Totley Tzatziki and so on !
Relay details are as follows; see attached maps for suggested routes :
Leg One : 6.7 miles and 1060 feet of ascent. All of it is on road and all of it is uphill so the services of a road specialist are required and the leg finishes at the S-W corner of Redmires Reservoir.
Leg Two : 7.6 miles and 1395 feet of ascent. From Redmires over Stanage, down to the Derwent Valley, up over Win Hill and down to the changeover on the railway bridge north of Hope.
Leg Three : 5.9 miles and 1655 feet of ascent. Up onto Lose Hill and along the ridge to Hollins Cross, round the west side of Mam Tor, up and along Rushup Edge to the changeover where the track leaves the road at the west end.
Leg Four : 7.3 miles and 1046 feet of ascent. Off down the bridleway, into Roych Clough, round South Head to cross the road at Peep ‘o Day then up and over the Chinley Churn ridge at Bigstone and down to the final changeover under the railway bridge just north of Furness Vale.
Leg Five : 5.6 miles and 997 feet of ascent. An eyeballs-out blast up through Diglee Farm, round Whaley Moor, up again over Higher Moor, over the ridge into Lyme Park and downhill to the Finish at the Boar’s Head pub.
Total length : 33 miles and 6220 feet of ascent.
Post-event gathering : Boar’s Head pub, Shrigley Road, Higher Poynton (GR 943833).
For the benefit of support teams/team vehicles heading for the pub from the last changeover – head down the A6 through Disley and High Lane and turn off left at the traffic lights at 938856, then turn immediately left again and down to the level crossing at 938844. Proceed along the very twisty little road to the junction at 940839, turn left there and continue along until you come to the Boar’s Head
Let’s hope for a most interesting and entertaining day; I’ll be back in touch nearer the day to ascertain the exact number of participating teams.
