Wednesday evening Village & Countryside Spunch from the Grapes, 289 Stockport Road, Gee Cross SK14 5RU.
Kindly supported by SPRAYWAY the global outdoor clothing brand, based locally in Hyde sprayway.com
60, 90 and 120 min score course options (choose on the night itself). Bag Drop, Loos, Start, Finish, Food & Drink all at the Grapes. Daylight evening Spunch for runners & walkers. Family friendly & dog friendly too.
Our first Spunch visit to Gee Cross and Werneth Low - it won't be our last! At 279m high, Werneth Low provides panoramic views over Manchester and beyond (on a clear evening). Low is a northern word for Hill btw! Will your route take you to the summit?
With sunset at around 830pm it could be a spectacular westerly descent off the hill and back to the pub!
About 10 mins from M60 J24 & J25, the event centre is convenient for anywhere with easy access to the M60 Manchester Outer Ring, and especially handy for Hyde, Denton, Romiley, Marple, Glossop, Hadfield & Hattersley etc.
Run, jog or walk - suitable for road runners, trail runners, park runners, fell runners, adventure racers, orienteers, walkers, newcomers, and families alike. 2k to 22k, the choice is yours! Newcomers and locals especially welcome. Great for families and friends to do together. Suitable for all ages and abilities - lots of help available for newcomers. Dogs are welcome, but must be kept on a lead and under control at all times.
Start at your convenience anytime between 530pm & 730pm. (Last start for 90min course 715pm, last start for 120min course 645pm). Registration open from 530pm.
Navigating with a specially prepared map, visit as many checkpoints as you can in the time available, S-punching using the MapRun app on your smartphone, Garmin or Apple Watch.
Some initial ascent is almost inevitable, but once up on top, you will be rewarded with great views and a rich network of well drained paths*, and good running / walking in Werneth Low Country Park too. Lower-level, and less hilly options will be available for those who might prefer closer proximity to the pub! Even locals will likely discover new paths and places!
The Grapes will provide a warm welcome with excellent Food & Drink available after your run / walk. The pub is child and dog friendly. And it has good outdoor eating / drinking areas too if the weather is kind.
With around 60 Spunchpoints to go for - how many will you bag?
Parking will be free and on nearby roads / street sides all within 5 mins walk from the Grapes.
Catch the Spunch Train / Bus. The area is well served by public transport. Hyde Central train station is about 2k walk / jog from the event centre, and there are several bus routes that get you close to the pub.
Hope you will come along and give it a go.
*total absence of mud can not be guaranteed!
