Please read the race rules and declaration carefully and familiarise yourself with them, before entering. They feature important aspects for your own safety.
Entry requirements
You must be at least 19 years old as of 4 June 2021 to enter Scafell Sky Race
Entries are not vetted: however, Scafell Sky Race is much more than your average trail run and we expect you to come prepared. You will be tackling 40km of steep and technical terrain, and you will need to be a skilled and confident mountain runner to make the course cut-offs and complete the route. We will ask you to detail your relevant running/racing experience at the point of entry, and this may include:
By entering the race, you are attesting your competence to complete the course. Any competitor found to have deliberately misled the Race Director with regard to their mountain running experience or ability will be expelled from the race and all future associated races.

Competitor Declaration
We have partnered with Black Trail Runners, a new group concerned with ethnicity in trail running. We are collecting data to share with them, so they can see the differing ethnicity in trail races or lack of it. Only the data of ethnicity will be shared with them, with no other details attached, like names etc.
Thanks for helping us collect this data, we are sure it will be of great help to the BTR Group.
