Ultra X 110 England

Ultra X 110 England is an event that takes place in the Peak District National Park in September each year. It offers two races: Ultra X 110 England and Ultra X 50 England. The 110 event is a two-stage race taking place on Saturday and Sunday, whilst the 50 event is a single-stage race taking place on the Sunday, following the same route but starting 2 hours later.

Inhabited from the Mesolithic era, the Peak District has a rich history of agriculture, mining and quarrying, and is now famous for its vast natural landscapes, spa towns, caves and network of footpaths and cycling trails. With a huge variety of remote terrain, challenging climbs, and stunning upland scenery on offer, the Peak District is one of the best trail running locations in the country.

THE RACE:

Ultra X 110 England is a multi-stage ultra-marathon that takes place over two days in the Peak District National Park in September each year.

Inhabited from the Mesolithic era, the Peak District has a rich history of agriculture, mining and quarrying, and is now famous for its vast natural landscapes, spa towns, caves and network of footpaths and cycling trails. With a huge variety of remote terrain, challenging climbs, and stunning upland scenery on offer, the Peak District is one of the best trail-running locations in the country.

The course consists of two loops (one each day), starting and finishing in the beautiful village of Edale set on the Pennine Way. Each loop takes participants through the surrounding hills and valleys, and past well know peaks such as Kinder Scout and Mam Tor.


There are checkpoints stationed approximately 10km apart where competitors can access water, snacks, shelter, and if necessary, medical support.


Competitors will be able to camp at Race HQ at Newfold Farm in Edale on Friday and Saturday nights, where they will have access to therapist treatment, medical care and hot water. If competitors would like to camp on Sunday night after the race they are welcome to do so.

Ultra X England’s races are both UTMB® Index Races, in the 100k and 50k categories respectively
