A runner in athletic gear and a blue cap jogs uphill on a dirt path surrounded by grassy hills under a clear sky. He wears a race bib and appears focused amid the natural landscape. Runners and walkers move along a grassy, elevated ridge lined with small bushes, with rolling countryside and distant hills visible under a clear sky. A wooden signpost points right, reading "Ridgeway Footpath" with a white acorn symbol, beside a sunlit, tree-lined, dirt hiking trail in a forested area. A woman in athletic wear is running uphill on a grassy trail with rolling hills and trees in the background, under a clear sky. A person wearing athletic gear runs along a dirt trail outdoors, with a black knee brace. In the foreground, an arrow sign points in the direction of the path. Green fields and trees are visible in the background. A runner in bright pink shorts and a black shirt jogs along a dirt trail on a grassy hillside, with another runner and wooded landscape visible in the background under a clear sky. People are walking along a grassy hilltop path on a bright, clear day, with rolling green hills and distant countryside visible under a pale blue sky.

This was my first ultra and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Marshall’s we’re all very friendly, aid stations were amazing and had everything you’d want and the course was unbelievable. Definitely not an easy run but a really great day out
