Wuthering Hike / Haworth Hobble 2007 Race Report The bleak and breezy Yorkshire moorland provided a stark backdrop for the first event in this year?s Montrail Ultra-running Championship.The Wuthering Hike is a 31 mile course, with 4,400ft of ascent/descent. The second half of the course is particularly challenging, with some stiff climbs to do on tired legs.A cool, mostly dry day with good visibility gave excellent running conditions; and enabled 232 people to complete the course.Winner Adam Breaks came in with an impressive time of 3:43:24, half an hour clear of second equal Allen Smalls and Matt Giles.First females Helene Whitaker and Cath Worth clocked 4.53.24. The Montrail Ultra-running championship is divided into short, medium and long events; the Wuthering Hike is in the short category. The next race in the MUC is the Manx Mountain Marathon, another ?short? event at 30 miles. Over £10,000 of prizes are on offer over the 12 races of the 2007 MUC.
