This is a 12-hour limited event for which runners cannot qualify for the At Large List.
We are excited to continue with the latest instalment of the Limitless Trails BYU Series. This one has a time cut-off and a sprint last lap finish to determine the WINNER.
The first 11 yards are the standard format, each one to be completed within an hour. The 12th and final yard is a race!
Trophies awarded to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishers.
Anyone completing a yard receives a medal, and we have a special medal for anyone who reaches 32 miles ie ULTRA.
Set just outside Crickhowell deep in the Black Mountains the route is 50/50 Trail and Tarmac, with only one gradual climb and a short steep section, the rest is relatively flat terrain which means fast.
You will be watered and fed, with delicious and nutritious hot and cold food.
