Race For You difficulty
6.6/ 10
Hard
Limited evidence confidence · 52% evidence coverage
This score is driven most by substantial race distance, accumulated fatigue and format burden. 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.

Course analysis
What shapes this race
Expect forest trail that may change character in wet conditions, long runnable canal sections where pace discipline matters more than technical skill.

Data PartialThe official page supports 16–20 February 2028, five stages, a marketed 220 miles, 3,091m and £795 solo. The published stage distances total 219 miles; narrative and embedded-route totals also disagree. Daily controls remain stage facts, not a manufactured overall cutoff. Stage one has a separate 10:30/11:00 start-time conflict.
