Welcome to Belvoir Challenge 23rd Feb 2008

The routes (26 and 15 miles) follow footpaths, byways, tracks, and minor roads, and with the kind permission of the Duke of Rutland, go through the Belvoir Estate. Both routes start and finish at Harby School and are clearly way-marked with coloured tape. The routes are mainly off road and mud is usually the order of the day. There is a lung bursting 2000 feet of ascent to contend with on the 26 mile route. There are checkpoints roughly every 5 miles providing free drinks and snacks. (The Belvoir Challenge is well known for the homemade cakes provided, and is one of the few events where you can actually put on weight!)
