The Ultra Loop - Temple Newsam, Leeds
The Ultra Loop is an inclusive and flexible running event hosted by Resolute Running that gives each participant a fixed time window of 8 hours to complete as many laps as they can. The course is a mixed terrain loop of 5 km that combines woodland trail, gravel paths and park road around Temple Newsam Park in Leeds. Each crossing of the start/finish line records a lap time; final results show number of laps completed, total distance and elapsed time. All finishers receive a finishing time and a medal.
The route has approximately 88 m of elevation and is not on a closed course, so runners should expect other park users such as walkers or dog walkers. The organisers recommend trail shoes for the mixed surfaces. Support is concentrated at a single aid station by the start/finish where participants can fill bottles, access water, fruit, sweet and savoury snacks, energy bars and electrolytes supplied by the event sponsor VOOM. The event operates on a bring your own bottle basis and does not provide cups. A bag drop is available throughout the day and portaloos are provided near the aid station.
Entry fee is listed as £34. Under 12s are not permitted; participants aged 12 to 15 require prior arrangement with the organiser and must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. On entry participants receive confirmation and an event guide, and race bibs are collected at registration on the morning of the event.
