About this race
Ravenscar provides the distinct character: high coastal ground within the North York Moors National Park, with the route incorporating sections of the Cleveland Way rather than resembling a standard park run. EnduranceLife | North York Moors is part of the 2026-27 trail season, featuring trail runners navigating open moorland and grassland, with points awarded on the Season Leaderboard for competitive participants.
Expect moderate terrain requiring steady effort, particularly along sections passing "dry stone walls," "disused railway lines," and "upland sheep grazing." The varied surface suggests footwear choice is important: grassy sections, exposed moorland, and sufficient elevation gain throughout the programme ensure a challenging race. The finish line unites runners from both shorter and longer categories, with the customary Endurancelife procedure of online check-in and a required safety video prior to race week.
