There were new records by about 5 minutes (Oli Johnson) and almost half an hour (Jasmin Paris) at the excellent Marsden to Edale Trigger fell race on Sunday, in crisp Peak District conditions…

RaceKit posted after the event:

STUNNING weather for the second annual Trigger race… 20+ miles from Marsden to Edale across typically ‘challenging’ Peak District terrain. Overall winner (again) was international Oli Johnson in 3:08 – with a stunning SIXTH place overall not surprisingly earning Jasmin Paris the ladies’ trophy.

Jasmin Paris at the Trigger fell race

A total of 176 runners took part in the Racekit-sponsored event, which guarantees all proceeds to benefit Mountain Rescue. Last year’s race raised £2,500-plus – we’ll announce the 2013 total here when race organiser Nicky Spinks has done all her sums!
