Ultra X Wales | 60K

GB Slam!

Can you complete Ultra X Scotland, Ultra X Wales and Ultra X England in the same year?

The Great British Slam award is in recognition of those who complete all three GB Ultra X events within a calendar year. Participants can choose any combination of events but they must all be ultra distance i.e. Ultra X Wales 25km does not count towards the Grand Slam.

• Ultra X Scotland (110, 60 & 50)
• Ultra X Wales (110, 60 & 50)
• Ultra X England (110, 60 & 50)

In order to be eligible for the award, entrants must enter and finish each of the individual events within the cut-off times of each race. Awards will be presented at the finish line of the final event of the year, Ultra X England.

Kit

A helpful kit checklist is readily available.

If you don't finish

In the scenario that you cannot finish a stage, you will be offered entry into the following edition of the race at half price. You will not receive a finishers' medal or official result.

Cut offs

Very relaxed cut-offs. It’s not about what time you get, it’s the adventure you have along the way. On average, you will have over 2 hours 30 minutes to complete each 10km (in-between checkpoints).

I’m from the Caribbean and I started my running journey three years ago. I’ve ran a few ultras, but nothing like an Ultra X event. From day one on arrival to the last day everyone was amazing. It felt like a holiday with a lot of running and challenges. It was my first ever staged race. The whole experience felt more than just a race. You meet amazing people, from the runners down to the staff. I will definitely be looking for more events that you guys do. Keep up the amazing work. Amado O

The Ultra X team provided a wonderfully inclusive, welcoming and supportive environment from beginning to end. The routes were exceptional, taking us to hidden parts of Wales that were just stunning. The views from the mountains were incredible and well worth the climbs up! The medics and osteopaths/physios were outstanding and provided exceptional support to all runners, going above and beyond to ensure runners could keep moving safely. Highly recommend this 5 day event in Wales. Stephen K
