High Hills of Hedgehope
If brooding Jon Snow from Game
of Thrones was going to do a race, this is the type of event he’d do. It’s 13.1 miles of tough fell running in Northumberland. As you scale the summit of Hedgehope (the secondhighest of the Cheviot Hills, at 714m) you’ll have to contend with rocky outcrops, crags, howling winds, occasional snow and the odd river crossing. Winter (and possibly a hamstring strain) is coming. January 13, Ingram, Northumberland, highfellevents.co.uk
