CBTE Eight Stations Ultra
The CBTE Eight Stations Ultra is a trail running event held on 11 July 2027. The route covers 50K with 3,322 ft of total ascent and passes eight railway stations between Whitby and Pickering. Much of the course runs alongside railway lines, including the Esk Valley Railway Line and the North Yorkshire Moor Railway Line.
The route is partially self-navigational. Organisers provide a route map, a step-by-step route description and a GPX file. The event is fully tracked by Open Tracking. The surface varies and can include mud, rocks and tree roots, so underfoot conditions may be rough. A 13 hour cutoff applies, which allows for slower runners and quick walkers. Minimum age to enter is 20 years.
Prizes include trophies for first place male, female and non-binary finishers, plus first place male and female in the 50, 60 and 70 age categories. The event is presented as a single long-distance trail race rather than a road event, and details such as entry periods and fees are managed by the organiser.
