Anyone know a list of multi-hour events that allow kids 11+ to take part?

Got a few kids in the club that are keen for entering some events, most don't fancy the short circuit xc races, so I'm thinking a multi-hour thing would be good.

Ta.

My wee bro did Strathpuffer with us a few years back. Think he was 13 at the time.

Suspect that'll be a temperature drop too far for the parents, never mind the kids!

Tom Seipp first did the Puffer around that age I think. Rich had to accompany him at all times though. I think he's doing it solo in 2020.

Plenty allow acompannied kids. The ones I know in the Lakes:-
Sam Houghton mtb challenge.
Dean Barwick school mtb challenge
Slack Randy mtb challenge

Other stuff in SW Scotland:-
Dalbeattie Hardrock (duathlon)
Hillbilly duathlon (Kirroughtree)
10 at Kirroughtree. Another Galloway Hillbillies event but might be a more kid friendly alternative to Strathpuffer (summer, 10 hours, many team size options, low key and nice venue).
