Pink Moon Ladies Trail Half Marathon

Celebrate the arrival of spring with the Pink Moon Ladies Only Trail Half Marathon, returning for its third year on April 2027. This unique race invites women runners to experience a scenic and challenging trail course under the glow of the full moon, known as the Pink Moon.
The route begins at Race HQ in Rock Lane, Sutton Scarsdale S44 5ST, where participants can register starting from 3:30 PM with free parking available. The event kicks off at 5:00 PM, though an earlier start time of 4:30 PM is also offered for those who prefer to run before dusk sets in.
Running through Sutton Springs Wood and climbing up the Five Pits Trail, this half marathon offers breathtaking views throughout its undulating terrain. At the halfway turnaround point near Pilsley, runners will find a checkpoint with water, squash, and sweets to fuel their journey back.
Safety is paramount on this course; additional marshals in high-visibility clothing guide participants through Sutton Springs Wood, where glow sticks line Rock Lane for clear direction towards the finish.
Upon crossing the finish line at 8:00 PM, runners will be greeted with a warm welcome and a well-deserved medal. Complimentary cake and hot drinks await by the campfire, allowing everyone to reflect on their achievement in a cozy setting.
This event not only celebrates women's athletic achievements but also supports local charity The Elm Foundation, which provides vital services for Women’s Aid.
For those interested in securing financial protection should unforeseen circumstances prevent attendance, XCover is available as an option during registration.
With its focus on safety and community spirit, the Pink Moon Ladies Only Trail Half Marathon promises a memorable experience under the moonlit sky of early spring.
To ensure your participation, register at Race HQ starting from 3:30 PM. Free parking and facilities are provided to make this event as accessible as possible for all participants.
