SilverBack Trails Lamplighter 20 Something… Sunset to Sunrise night trail run.
Starting and finishing at Goathland Village Hall you will visit Triangulation Pillars and other checkpoint locations before heading back to Goathland Village Hall. There will be refreshments, water fizzy pop and snacks at two locations on the course.
There will also be one indoor CP in between.
The event start and finish will be dictated by the Sundown and Sunup times for that day, 20/21June. So it will be a true run through the night, dusk till dawn.
The twenty is a sibling to the Lamplighter Night Ultra which is circa 40 miles.
Come and run from sunset to sunrise and add your stories to the Lamplighter Legend...
Entrants will register and collect numbers etc an hour before last light , then the event will begin when the Lamplighter appears, it will be up to you to be ready to go…
You will then have until the sun comes up above the horizon and the Lamplighter returns to get back to the village hall, but don’t despair you will still get a finishers medal if you beat the flag. As soon as the Lamplighter has snuffed out the lamp a flag will be raised at the village hall a little bit at a time, every 20 minutes, until it is at full mast….
Total time circa 6 hours.
All finishers will receive a rather nice Lamplighter medal .
Memento to the first female and first male finishers.
Lamplighters have been around in various forms since the 15th century , arriving with their lighting equipment and helper to hold the ladder as they ascend to light the lamps as night draws in.
