As a UTMB qualifier with a rich history spanning nearly two decades, it attracts a global community of dedicated ultra-runners seeking a pure, unadulterated challenge. Whether you're chasing a personal record or simply aiming to conquer one of Britain's great point-to-point routes, this is an adventure that will define your running season.
