The Derwent Dambuster Charity Challenge 2007 is a prestigious 10 mile event around the Upper Derwent Valley which aims to raise money for Challenge Cancer Through Adventure.

The 2nd Derwent Dambuster will take place on Saturday 28th April 2007, starting below the Derwent Dam wall.

The Derwent Dambuster follows a 10-mile course around the Derwent and Howden reservoirs in the beautiful Upper Derwent valley, starting and finishing by Derwent Dam, near Fairholmes Car Park.
The route is mostly flat, with a few short gentle slopes. The first part of the course is on rough surfaced tracks, and the second part on a tarmac road. The route will be marshalled or signed throughout.
The Derwent Dambuster Charity Challenge is a non-competitive challenge/walk/hop/fun-run/trail-race. Valuable prizes, including spot prizes, will be awarded. For an entry form click here, or write to us here.

The entry fee is £10 and proceeds will go to Challenge Cancer Through Adventure.
You don't have to raise sponsorship money, but if you would like to support our charity, sponsorship forms are available here.

The minimum age for entries is 18 on the day of the event. Entries are restricted to the first 200 entries received up to and on the day of the race.
