Ultra Marathons in East Sussex, in context
Verus covers 3 ultra marathons in East Sussex, out of 7 races there — roughly 43% of what is on here.
The dates cluster into 3 months — March, May and October — so there is a window rather than a rolling calendar.
Only one of them publishes an elevation figure: Endurancelife Sussex Ultra, at 5,266ft of climb. Where an organiser has not published one, this site says so rather than estimating.
If none of these fit, the counties where Verus covers the most racing overall are London (39), Hertfordshire (30) and Kent (26).
