Are you ready to race the tide?

Race the Tide challenges runners of all levels to tackle a one-of-a-kind 10km obstacle race in the Lake District. The spectacular course navigates wild, natural terrain where participants crawl through mud, wade through rivers, take on obstacles, and scramble to the tops of wooded hillsides.

GET the full experience

With our weekender ticket, you'll get access to Muncaster Castle, camping for the weekend, entry into the race, Saturday night dinner and a ceilidh!

FANCY THIS?

Race the Tide is about getting out there, having fun and being yourself. You don't have to dress up but... We encourage participants to embrace the fun and run in costume, adding even more excitement and color to the race. Whether you're an athlete, part of a family, or bringing your dog along, Race the Tide has something for everyone. The race has been going since 2013, and has since become an annual tradition originating as an event hosted by Ewan Frost-Pennington, whose family has lived in the castle for over 800 years, for his friends and locals. While it has grown to over 300 runners annually, it still retains the feeling that you are at a friend of a friend's event, with the organising committee still volunteers with direct connection to the family or local area.
