By agreement of the Friends of Coppett Hill Trust and of the Courtfield Estate, we have devised a fell race route up and over the hill. It may be the little brother of the Brecon Beacons Hills further to the west, but it still packs in all you need from a fell race. Starting in Goodrich, the route steeply climbs out of the village, up the steps to the trig point. Then comes a short section on the ridge and a descent (right turn) down a grassy path. A turn left takes you on a level path along the river all the way to the end the ridge. You ascend again to nearly the top and descend the same grassy path back, then a short section on the road to the village hall and finish.
The course will be marked and marshaled. Please stay to the route, rather than taking any ‘fell runner’ shortcuts! Maps will be available. The race is run under WFRA rules – CATEGORY BS / PM. Due to the time of year and accessibility of course, kit will not be required. Over 16. All competitors run at their own risk!
Prizes for 1st/2nd/3rd M & F and categories M & F 1st 40/50/60/70/U23
