Beacons Ultra

The Beacons Ultra is a challenging trail running event held in November in Talybont-on-Usk, Powys, at the foothills of the Brecon Beacons, Wales. It offers three race distances: a 49-mile ultra featuring two loops of a 23-mile course with an out-and-back climb to Pen y Fan, a 26-mile marathon following a single loop of the ultra route, and a 13-mile half marathon around Talybont-on-Usk including Tor Y Foel hill and Talybont reservoir. The courses combine trail, mountain, canal, and road terrain with significant elevation gains, providing a scenic yet demanding experience.

The event is known for its friendly atmosphere welcoming runners of all abilities. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
