The Ultra Loop - Delamere Forest
The Ultra Loop is an 8-hour looped running event held at Delamere Forest, Frodsham, WA6 6NB. Participants run repeated circuits of a roughly 6 km route that combines gravel roads and light woodland trails. Each lap is recorded and the results show number of laps completed, total distance and elapsed time. Laps not completed before the 8-hour cut-off are not counted.
The course explores winding forest trails, includes a climb to Old Pale Viewpoint and passes around Blackmere Lake. The route is not on a closed course, so walkers and dog walkers may be encountered. Trail shoes are recommended.
Support is provided at a single aid station located at the start/finish area. The aid station offers water, fruit, sweet and savoury snacks, energy bars and electrolytes from the event sponsor VOOM. Participants are asked to bring their own bottles as cups are not provided. A bag drop is available for the day and portaloos are provided near the aid station.
Entry details include an entry fee of £34. Runners aged 12 to 15 require prior arrangement with the organiser and must be accompanied by a parent or guardian; under 12s are not permitted. The event records lap times, maintains a leaderboard and awards a finishing medal to participants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
