4.5/ 10
Moderate
Moderate evidence confidence · 68% evidence coverage
This score is driven most by balanced overall demands. Difficulty V2's separate time-limit modifier adds 0.35 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 sections where foot placement and downhill confidence matter, forest trail that may change character in wet conditions.

Climbing density
28.4m per km
A more useful comparison than total ascent alone: it shows how consistently the course asks you to climb.
Cutoff analysis
Very high pressure
To finish inside 14h, the raw average required is 10:26 per kilometre (16:48 per mile), including every stop.
Raw pace10:26/km
PressureVery high pressure
Cutoff pressure compares the published time limit with distance, ascent and verified course demands. Lower pressure does not mean the race is easy. Raw pace includes checkpoints, food stops, navigation errors and any sleep; it is not a pacing plan.

Data PartialCompleted from 06:30 on 22 June 2024. Five 10-mile laps, approximately 7,500ft and 14 hours; entry tiers £70/£80 plus £2. No pacers, crew permitted. The organiser dropped this separately entered scalar for 2025 because of low numbers, so it remains a historical/dormant family rather than being merged into the 50K.
