Seven Dragons took part in this year’s Guy Fawkes 10 miles race on the usual challenging, scenic and hilly course we know and love.

Started by Guy Fawkes himself (well that’s what we were told) the race began at the beautiful Ripley Castle, winding through some stunning countryside and well supported villages on this undulating course. And there were plenty of ups to climb, but don’t let the names put you off – The Birstwith Brute, Swincliffe Swine and the hardest challenge, For Fawkes Sake! There were lots of downs too in which to recover and this will be a race we will definitely add to our 2024 race calendar.
