Calling all mince pie enthusiasts and adventurers! Join us in our mission to spread festive cheer and support a worthy cause by taking mince pies to trig points across the UK.

As the holiday season approaches, let's combine our love for baking, running, and giving back by embarking on a mince pie expedition. Here's how you can participate:

1. Bake or buy your favorite mince pies. Get creative with your recipes, or indulge in delicious shop-bought treats.
2. Choose a trig point near you (or further away if you are feeling brave). Trig points are hilltop landmarks that offer stunning views and provide a perfect setting for our mince pie mission.
3. Plan your mince pie trek. Pack your pies, a thermos of hot drinks, and warm gear for your adventure.
4. Ascend to the trig point. Enjoy the scenery, fresh air, and sense of accomplishment as you reach the summit.
5. Place your mince pies at the trig point. Capture a festive photo to share on social media with the hashtag #MincePieSomewhereHigh and tag us with @dalesrunner.
6. Every mince pie you place represents a donation of £1 from DalesRunner to a cause that matters to us all.
7. Together, let's create a network of mince pie trig points across the UK, spreading holiday cheer and supporting those in need. Share your mince pie trig adventures on social media using #MincePieSomewhereHigh, tag @dalesrunner and inspire others to join the cause.
8. Remember, every mince pie matters, and every donation makes a difference. Happy mince pie trekking and giving!

For all those pies that got scoffed somewhere high but didn't quite make it to a trig.
