NEW HQ LOCATION - LONGTOWN HALL - HEREFORD - HR2 0LD
Longtown Hall is the perfect gateway to the Black Mountains. Straight up onto the mountain! Changing the starting location for the 50-mile alongside the 3 other routes gives our returning runners a chance to experience those breathtaking views in daylight, as opposed to at night in previous years. Our first-timers get to experience fantastic landmarks like Llanthony Abbey, Hatterall Hill, Pen Cerrig Calch, Cat’s Back, Waun Fach and Lord Hereford's Knob on the route (although you only get to see all of them if you do the 50!!).
Whether it's tackling the 50- or 32-mile Ultras, Marathon, or even the "sting-in-the-tail" Half, each distance offers a unique challenge paired with stunning scenery.
You will be in excellent hands. We provide hot food (ULTRA ONLY), cold food for all distances, physio support, taping, full checkpoints, chip timing and trackers, back runners and medical care, plus local camping options (details below).
Those who like the sound of local camping near HQ can immerse themselves in the experience without rushing off afterwards. It will feel like a mini-adventure even outside of the race.
ALL DISTANCES WILL BE SELF NAVIGATION - TRACKED WITH FULL SUPPORT
This long-distance challenge is one that will fulfil the elite and seasoned runner whilst also offering amazing support for the less experienced trail runner who may be looking to step up a gear and attempt a greater challenge with the knowledge that they will be receiving incredible support - from our amazing teams at HQ and at checkpoints throughout the duration of the run.
Support crews and supporters will be most welcome during the event.
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL THE DISTANCES REQUIRE SELF NAVIGATION- SIGNS WILL ONLY BE USED AT DIFFICULT AREAS - GPX & MAP WILL BE REQUIRED - PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOU ARE EXPERIENCED IN MOUNTAIN RUNNING & NAVIGATION BEFORE CONSIDERING THESE EVENTS - Tracking will be provided.
