MTC Black Shuck
The MTC Black Shuck is a single day 45 miles ultra run held on 19 July 2029. The route runs from Bridgwater through to Crediton, starting at Premier Inn, Bridgwater North and finishing at Union Road Moto Velo. The course follows the same line used in the organiser’s JOGLE event but with reduced daily distances.
This race is day 10 of the MTC ALBION thirteen day end to end of England series. Competitor numbers are limited to 20 entries for the standalone event, with an additional allowance of 20 places for ALBION entrants, giving a maximum field of 40.
Entries are non refundable. Standard entry and a plus package are listed as separate fees; the plus package includes an embroidered race shirt and a lightweight hi visibility jacket if ordered at least four weeks before the event. There is an option to add personal cancellation insurance at checkout.
The event enforces a minimum average speed of 4 mph. Organisers operate preset cut off points along the route and will withdraw competitors who fail to meet the minimum. The race is cup free so competitors should bring a reusable cup.
Maps and GPX files are provided to entrants by email four weeks before the race. Organisers issue tracking devices with SOS functions and provide real time tracking during the event. Mandatory kit requirements include a backpack, head torch with spare batteries, route maps, compass or GPS, whistle, mobile phone, basic first aid and emergency food. Entrants must be 20 years or over on the start day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
