The Silkin Way Ultra

The Silkin Way Ultra is an exciting running event held in Telford, offering participants a choice between a 50K ultra marathon and a half marathon. This race, now in its 9th year, celebrates the anniversary of the Silkin Way, originally established 50 years ago. Runners traverse scenic routes from the south side of Telford along the River Severn to Bratton and back, with additional paths leading towards Coalbrookdale and Ironbridge.

The course is well-supported with aid stations at key intervals, providing refreshments and guidance through marked routes. The event is hosted at The Unicorn Inn in Little Dawley, Telford. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
