ooh I like the sound of this, is it open to all?

And I think the pyramids would be a good bet?

um
I'd go for a single mountain/hill if you can ...
Or an alternative is to find a tall building (20-40 or more floors), run up the stairs, and have someone holding the lift for you at the top. the few mins descent will allow drink & breather?

We used to do a nice session running :-O over from Cockley Beck to the cattle grid as you enter Eskdale and back. All runnable ;-)

This weeks challenge is furthest distance in 30 mins.

I'm thinking a long gentle downhill. My logic being that on steep hills you have to brake to stay in control, so on a gentler hill you'll go further.
