Five Rivers Ultra

This will be the third running of the event, taking the established beautiful route through the Dedham Vale and Suffolk Coast & Heaths Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It's a relatively flat course across unspoilt countryside with sparkling estuary waters nearly always in view. More than 85% of the route is on soft dirt trail. Conditions underfoot are typically good, here in one of Britain's driest regions. A continuous point-to-point race along the Suffolk & Essex coast, linking together sections of several well-established and waymarked long distance footpaths. The full 100 mile route ('5RU') circumnavigates 5 coastal estuaries. Shorter 50m and 50k options are also available ('5RU-50m' and '5RU-50k'). The event is now being run by Hayley Coles and Dan Clark, aka the Coastal Trail Runners.
