A welcome message from INOV8

We are delighted to be once again sponsoring the iconic Three Peaks Race and look forward to celebrating its 71st running with you all.

Working alongside our retail partner Pete Bland Sports in the event field, we will be out in force, supporting all runners tackling this historic race.

We also hope to be joined by several INOV8 athletes, many of whom will be aiming to challenge for race-day podium places.

Forged ourselves in nearby fells 22 years ago, we know what this incredible race means to both the sport and the community. Our footprints are etched into these hills, and it makes us proud to be at the heart of it.

Our running footwear and kit is built tough for the extremes of a race like this, so put your trust in us to crush the course. Our NATURALFIT design philosophy means all our gear works with your body, not against it.

Our top shoe recommendation for the Three Peaks race is the super-versatile TRAILTALON, designed to master soft mud AND tame hard trails. There’s also MAX, SPEED and GTX versions of the shoe.

Please do come see us in the event field, check out our new gear, and talk to us about all things fell running.

Good luck to everyone racing the 2027 Three Peaks Race.
