Overview
The Tissington Trail, the site of a former railway line from Ashbourne to Buxton, runs along a 13 mile route from Parsley Hay to Ashbourne in Derbyshire. Surrounded by beautiful countryside the traffic-free trail is ideal for a cracking marathon and, because the route is slightly downhill on the way back, you've got gravity on your side! The race is suitable for both experienced and first-time marathon runners.

Please note: there is a six hour cut off for this event. If it will take you longer please contact info@nice-work.org.uk
