About the race

The MTC Severn Plod Ultra is a 48-mile point-to-point ultramarathon starting at the Mid Wales Art Centre, Maesmawr, Powys. The route initially runs away from the River Severn, then rejoins at Dolerw Park, passing the Gorsedd stone circle and Newton’s Eisteddfod site before following the Severn toward the Montgomery Canal Walk. It continues past Pwll Penarth Nature Reserve, Welshpool, Offa’s Dyke Path, and the Breidden Hills to Montford Bridge, then through Bicton into Shrewsbury to the finish at the Premier Inn.

Finishers receive a bespoke medal and a complimentary MTC head visor; 4 vegan/gluten-free checkpoints, minimum 4 mph, maps/GPX available. 650m ascent, 581m descent. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
