Virtual Hay-O Trail

Celebrate our 50th Anniversary by completing the Hay-O Trail race virtually. Whether you were volunteering on race night, or not able to make it, you haven't missed out. Complete the race one your own (or with a friend), submit your results by email, and receive your medal.

The course starts and finishes at Cockermouth School. It is a 6 km Multi Terrain race running up and down The Hay.

This year, 2023, Derwent Athletic Club will celebrate its 50th Anniversary. To help celebrate this golden jubilee, we have commissioned a series of 4 medals for the four races we hold throughout the year. If you compete in all four of our races, the medals can be placed together to make a larger circular medal to celebrate 50 years of DAC.

Upon completion of the virtual race, and submitting your results and image of your gps tracking, you will be sent your medal.

**Please choose footwear to suit the terrain and weather conditions on the day. The highest point of the course is exposed to the elements so warmer layers may be required.**

The course is not suitable for wheelchairs.
