The Ultra Loop - March

About the Event

Ultra Loop is an 8-hour endurance challenge that invites runners of all levels to push their limits within the serene confines of Heaton Park, Manchester. This flexible event allows participants to choose how far they wish to run over multiple laps around a scenic 5km loop course.
The route weaves through diverse terrain, incorporating both paved roads and rugged trails that wind past Boating Lake and Heaton Hall. As runners complete their loops, they can immerse themselves in the park’s natural beauty, meandering along woodland paths shaded by trees and crossing over babbling streams.
Regardless of how many laps are completed within the 8-hour window, all participants receive a finishing time and commemorative medal to mark their achievement. Whether you aim for multiple loops or take your time exploring the varied landscapes, Ultra Loop offers an unforgettable running experience in one of Manchester’s most beloved parks.
No matter your pace or distance goal, runners are encouraged to enjoy the unique blend of urban charm and natural splendor that Heaton Park has to offer during this inclusive event.
