The Windmill Fell Race has been held annually since 2016 and is organised by West End Runners. The race is approximately 5 miles starting in Woodhouse Eaves in Leicestershire. From 2021 onwards it has acted as the Leicestershire & Rutland county championship race for fell running. It is a category "B short" fell race.
This is not an official race website, just my own collection of the results of the race.
