It starts at 7.15pm from the&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.theblacksmithsarms.com\/\">Blacksmiths<\/a>&nbsp;in Broughton Mills and follows the Dunnerdale route up the Knott, but instead of continuing up Raven Crag it contours right to head towards Caw. It comes back the same way &#8211; for most! &#8211; and you must visit the Knott checkpoint on the return leg too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Entry is \u00a34 outside the pub on the day. Parking is usually in a nearby field, but if it\u2019s very wet we\u2019ll have to use the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t imagine this is an easy race just because it&#8217;s out and back and up one hill. It&#8217;s a lot steeper, rougher and more navigational than you&#8217;d think. Someone goes to Stephenson&#8217;s Ground every year and several people have ended up in the Duddon valley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also one of the nicest races in the calendar with varied terrain, proper fells, great views and a pub finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns-7b3dd551\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns has-2-columns has-desktop-equal-layout has-tablet-equal-layout has-mobile-collapsedRows-layout has-vertical-unset\"><div class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns-overlay\"><\/div><div class=\"innerblocks-wrap\">\n<div id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column-cb5de79b\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Race Details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Date &amp; time:<\/strong>\u00a0Wed 14th May 2025, at 19:15<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Country:<\/strong>\u00a0England<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Region:<\/strong>\u00a0Lake District<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Category:<\/strong>\u00a0AS<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Distance:<\/strong>\u00a09.3 km \/ 5.8 miles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Climb:<\/strong>\u00a0550 m \/ 1804 ft<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Venue:<\/strong>\u00a0Blacksmiths Arms, Broughton Mills, LA20 6AX<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Grid reference:<\/strong>\u00a0223906<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Skills:<\/strong>\u00a0ER, LK, NS<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Minimum age:<\/strong>\u00a016, U18s must have parental consent form.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Entry Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Fee: <\/strong>FRA Member: \u00a34, Non-Member: \u00a36<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Entry on day:<\/strong>\u00a0Yes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pre-entry:<\/strong>\u00a0No<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Requirements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Full FRA kit required: waterproof jacket and bottoms with hood and taped seams, hat, gloves, map, compass, whistle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teams<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Teams allowed:<\/strong>\u00a0Yes, of 3.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column-49eb88bf\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blackcom.be\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Caw-large.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"825\" height=\"619\" src=\"https:\/\/blackcom.be\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Caw-large.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-541\" style=\"width:458px;height:343px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bcrunners.org.uk\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Caw-large.jpeg 825w, https:\/\/bcrunners.org.uk\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Caw-large-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/bcrunners.org.uk\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Caw-large-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 825px) 100vw, 825px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Caw<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Race Organiser:<\/strong>\u00a0Tim Ripper<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Telephone:<\/strong> 07731 433428<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Email:<\/strong> timripper86@gmail.com<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Records<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><strong>Male Record:\u00a0<\/strong><\/strong>45:57, Lloyd Taggart (2007)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><strong>Female Record:<\/strong><\/strong>\u00a056:27 Jackie Hargreaves (2004)<br>                                         Jackie Lee\u00a0(2007)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Second race in the BCR Bob Grieve series, trophies for man and woman with lowest combined time across the four Black Combe races (Black Combe, Caw, Dunnerdale and Kirkby Moor).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Route<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/embed?mid=12lDTVs1uwYBIolnVp8OgCF-4pKsW1G4&amp;ehbc=2E312F&amp;noprof=1&amp;z=14\" width=\"800\" height=\"900\"><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Caw race is a quiet evening out-and-back.
