Calver (Pronounced Car'ver) Peak Fell Race is a fantastic little race. The start, finish and presentation is from the pub which has a great veranda for watching the presentation. The whole course is runnable with some killer 60m uphills to burst your lungs! I managed 1st Vet and got £25 for it! 8th overall. Well recommended for a mid-week blast with a good young field. This week you can do the Bamford, Calver, Totley, Castleton & Shining Cliffs Fell Races...if you are a nutter!
