Fell Running
NDRC x INOV8 Fell Run Challenge 2026
Once again, we have teamed up with INOV8 Bakewell to bring you an exciting Fell Club Challenge for 2026!
INOV8 Bakewell
The store offers a wide selection of outdoor gear including branded running, hiking and fitness gear.
NDRC members are welcome to a 15% discount for any in-store purchases.
The staff there have a great in-depth knowledge of fell running and will be able to help with kit chat, or even around training. 'Summat' run a coffee shop from within the store… A cosy coffee always helps while you chat and mooch around.
We have ideas in the future to potentially arrange some fell runs or kit demos from the store… so watch this space!
More information on the store can be found here:
