We Need To Talk About Chevin and Chevin is BS are two fell races organised by Great Owl Running on Otley Chevin in West Yorkshire. Starting and finishing at Station Top, the races explore the steep hillsides, woodland and rugged trails of Chevin Forest Park.

The 14K We Need To Talk About Chevin route features approximately 650 metres of ascent, including the Chevin Steps, Danefield Climb and Fells Plantation. The shorter 9K Chevin is BS course includes around 390 metres of climbing and shares several challenging sections. Both races cross rocky paths, dirt tracks and grassy slopes, with partially marked routes requiring basic navigation skills.

The event offers a demanding fell running experience for runners confident on steep and technical terrain. An optional early start is available, with a water refill point on the course and prizes for leading finishers. The combination of tough climbs, fast descents and views across Wharfedale gives both races their distinctive character.
