Organiser's Description

A new type of endurance trail run, set in the heart of beautiful Newnham Park, Plymouth, Devon.

The concept is simple. Run 4.167 miles every hour, on the hour.
Each circuit starts on the hour and must be completed in less than 60 minutes.
When each lap is completed, the remaining time within the hour is typically used to recover for the next circuit.

Set your own challenge - 3 circuits (12.5 miles), 6 circuits (25 miles), 12 circuits (50 miles), 24 circuits in 24 hours (100 miles), or enter the "ultra" and see how far you can go, with no limits.

This was a great event. It was my first attempt at a backyard ultra. The event was well organised and the running route was challenging. Thanks to everyone that organised it, I’ll definitely be back.
Really please you enjoyed it Niall - you smashed it! Will you go in for the 100-miler next year? Jon
