She Strides Ultra

Sat 1st August 2026

A person in a blue jacket and purple skirt walks a dog on a stone path across a bridge, with green hills and a cloudy sky in the background. Maroon outline of mountain peaks above bold maroon text reading "She Strides Ultra," with "Ultra" in a flowing script font on a white background. A railway station with multiple train tracks and a long, open-sided shelter sits surrounded by green trees and hills under a partly cloudy blue sky. A narrow, cobblestone path wet with rain winds between dense green ferns and grass, bordered by a mossy stone wall and overhung by leafy tree branches. A small waterfall cascades over rocks into a pool surrounded by lush green foliage, ferns, and trees. Sunlight filters through the leaves, creating a peaceful natural scene. A vibrant sunset casts an orange glow over a grassy hillside, illuminating a lone tree and an old stone structure. A solitary person stands in the distance, admiring the dramatic landscape. A group of seven people stand near a tall stone obelisk on a grassy hill, surrounded by trees and overlooking a cloudy, green landscape. A group of eight people with backpacks and two dogs pose in front of a large stone cairn on a grassy hilltop, with a scenic countryside landscape and blue sky in the background. Eight smiling women and a black dog pose seated and standing on stone steps outside a stone building with flowers and greenery. They appear to be on a hiking or running outing, wearing athletic gear and backpacks. Five women in athletic gear stand smiling around a white trig point on a grassy hilltop under a blue sky with scattered clouds. A winding grassy path runs through open moorland with low stone walls, leading towards a distant lake under a bright blue sky with scattered clouds. Rolling hills stretch across the horizon.
