Burbage marshalls needed - contact Andrew Moore if you can help
Dark Peak Fell Runners is an athletics club for (mostly) off-road running. We are based in Sheffield, but have members across South Yorkshire, Derbyshire and further afield.
The three hundred-plus members have a wide range of abilities and interests. Our mens, ladies and veterans regularly achieve top positions in the English and British championships and in
the major relays, and we also have a great depth of long/ultra distance experience. We thrive on minimal (but sufficient) organisation,
a slightly anarchic sense of humour and an appetite for informal and unusual events.
