The challenging course had competitors run a 6.7 mile course from Penistone Hill Country Park up to Top Withins - believed to be the inspiration for Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights.
Organised by the Wharfedale Harriers, the run has been a mainstay of the festive calendar since 1994 and is immensely popular with racers.
One aspects from the race is many runners take part in fancy dress.
This year there was a Christmas pudding, Gandalf the Grey, and even a set of Minions – looking to win, not take over the world.
The race was originally the brainchild of Dave and Eileen Woodhead, known together as the Woodentops.
The couple were behind many of West Yorkshire’s famous fell races, including The Stoop, until they retired in 2017 having been awarded the British Empire Medal for services to the sport.
