FEBRUARY 9TH 2025

THE NORTH LAKES HALF MARATHON & 10K

SET IN THE STUNNING LORTON VALLEY - 09.02.2025
ABOUT US

On February 9th, 2025 the North Lakes New Year Half Marathon & 10k returns after a year off. Set in the base of the stunning Lorton valley, you will be surrounded by lakeland fells on a course that is quite gentle by Cumbrian standards, on quiet rolling roads with no "major" hills. 

​

For 2025 we are very pleased to be working with Wild Deer Events. The event will still be timed and supported by local companies, Timing Up North & Events Up North.

 

Although the HM route is undulating it can still be a quick course, just remember most of the bumpy stuff is in the first half!. The current course record is 1hr.08.18 so it can still be a PB course for many.

 

The 10k route is fast from the start, and with only 350ft of elevation there is some definite PB Potential. The current course record is 32.55 after 1 running of the distance.
