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 on the new layout of the race. The event will still be timed and supported by local company, Timing Up North. 

 

The new layout will be an improved route starting and finishing in Cockermouth Town Centre, taking in this wonderful part of the Lakes. Most of the route is on the quite country lanes through the stunning Lorton Valley with epic views across to the Lakes. There will also be a fantastic Town Centre Finish where spectators can watch you across that finish line.
