Ultra Marathons in Scottish Borders, in context
Verus covers 3 ultra marathons in Scottish Borders, out of 7 races there — roughly 43% of what is on here.
The dates cluster into 3 months — July, October and November — so there is a window rather than a rolling calendar.
Only one of them publishes an elevation figure: Jedburgh Three Peaks Ultra, at 3,000ft 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 Highland (9), Argyll and Bute (7) and Aberdeenshire (6).
