"The perfect race" - Rob

We've been blown away by the numerous positive and praiseworthy emails and messages we've received following our first event on 22nd April 2023. We had a fabulous day with some amazing performances and so we're going again in 2024! We hope you'll join us for South Yorkshire's longest ultra distance trail race!

List of services

Introducing the Steel City 60 Half!

Run the second half of the Steel City 60!

With 3901ft of ascent, this is a challenging 30 mile route through the Peak District, taking public footpaths and trails to the finish.
Finish at St Georges Park

Our Steel City 60 starts and finishes at St Georges Park sports facility, so entrants have the same facilities which include free car parking, changing rooms and hot showers, food and drinks.
Getting to the Start

We'd like to arrange a coach for entrants but this will be subject to numbers. If we get enough entrants to make the extra cost of a coach work (ie £10 per person), we'll make arrangements. Otherwise, we'll help with car sharing, public transport or shared taxi's.
Two Feed Stations

These will be at Moscar and Worrall Community Centre, the latter having toilet facilities.
