MTC Vampire - Ultra Running

The MTC Vampire is a single day ultra scheduled for 18 July 2029. The route covers a total of 38 miles from Travelodge Bristol Filton to Premier Inn Bridgwater North and follows the same corridor used by the MTC JOGLE event, but with reduced daily distances. The race is listed as Day 9 of the MTC ALBION thirteen day end to end of England series and forms part of the Mount to Coast End to End Challenge.

Competitor numbers are limited to 20 entries for the standalone Vampire plus an additional allowance of 20 for ALBION competitors, giving a maximum field of 40. Entrants must meet the organiser age requirement and carry mandatory kit including a backpack, head torch with spare batteries, provided route maps, compass or GPS device, whistle, mobile phone, basic first aid and an emergency food pack. URL will provide competitor tracking devices with SOS capability.

The route includes intermediate check points at approximately 9.1 miles (Long Ashton), 17.2 miles (Congresbury), and 26 miles (Axbridge) before the final 12 mile section to the finish. The event enforces a minimum average speed of 4.0 mph; competitors falling below this average face withdrawal from the race. Maps and GPX files are issued to entrants in advance, and the event is cup free so competitors should use a reusable cup.

Entry options include a standard entry fee of £90 and an upgraded race package at £155 that includes an embroidered race shirt and lightweight hi-viz jacket when booked in good time. All deposits and payments are non refundable under the organiser terms. Finishers receive a Vampire medal and male and female champions are awarded bespoke trophies.
