Ultra Marathons in North Yorkshire, in context
Ultra marathons make up most of North Yorkshire's racing on Verus — 17 of 23 races, or about 74%. If you run this distance, this is a well-served county.
The dates are spread across 9 months of the year, which gives real choice about when to peak rather than forcing a single date.
Of those that publish an elevation figure, the flattest is Endurancelife North York Moors Ultra at 4,051ft of climb and the hilliest Hardmoors 160 at 22,966ft — the same distance, but not the same afternoon.
