Successful source check: 2 Sept 2026Source confidence: mediumThe £58 affiliated fee is stored as the minimum before the £60 standard fee. EntryCentral rounds the distance to 35 miles and its segment ascent totals differ slightly from the headline. Official navigation guidance describes the route as fully marked. The Carradale 11:50 gate from an 08:15 start is not an overall cutoff. The relay is a companion category.

Race For You difficulty
3.4/ 10
Beginner-friendly
Limited evidence confidence · 50% evidence coverage
This score is driven most by balanced overall demands. Difficulty V2's separate time-limit modifier adds 0.00 points here and is capped at 0.70; a broad limit cannot erase extreme intrinsic demand. This is independent of the public Cutoff Pressure V2 band.
Weather, conditions and individual preparation can change the real difficulty significantly.
