The Hateful 8 Ultra (the winter Edition)
The Hateful 8 Ultra is a timed endurance event held on 3 October 2026 at the Bridgend and District Model Engineering Society in Bridgend, Wales. The event uses a single loop of approximately 9 miles that participants attempt to run as many times as possible within an eight hour time limit.
The course is mixed terrain and includes a steep climb, a road section with open views, and a downhill forestry trail that can be technically demanding under some conditions. The organiser notes that overall elevation is significant and may affect pacing.
Entry is restricted to people aged 18 to 75 on the event date. Entries open on 5 October 2025 and close on 2 October 2026. Two entry options are listed: entry only for £50.00, or entry with a t shirt for £77.00. There is an option to purchase XCover insurance to seek a refund in certain unforeseen circumstances.
Event provisions include parking, toilet facilities, hot and cold drinks and snacks, medical support, event volunteers, and a bespoke medal or trophy and a participant swag bag. Volunteers may receive free entry to an event as a benefit of volunteering. The event is organised by Mad Running Junkies. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
