This 26.2 mile run the competitors will enter the Lake District crossing the quick sands of Morecambe Bay, before plunging north through mountainous country on a rollercoaster running route that brings them to the foot of England’s most famous Lake. A shore-to-shore crossing of Windermere at its narrowest point will set the stage for what is yet to come. The competitors will proceed higher into the hills and forests of the area and immersing themselves into the Lake itself, tackling wades, swims, slides, jumps and an amazing floating assault course. The trademark Man Vs “Vertical Kilometre” will push those quads to breaking point and help to rack up a whopping 3000ft of ascent before the “Swallows and Amazons” rope swing suspended from a crane chucking them into the drink.
This is going to be another epic event that I will have covered for RatRace this year with still more to come, these events get better and better.
