The Ultra Loop - Track Edition
The Ultra Loop Track Edition is a timed track running event held at Woodbank Park Athletics Track in Stockport, Greater Manchester, UK. Participants run repeated laps of a 400 m track and aim to complete as many loops as possible within a chosen time limit of 6, 12 or 24 hours. Results record the number of laps completed, total distance and elapsed time; any laps not finished by the event cut-off are not included in the final results.
Entry confirmation and an event guide are sent by email after registration. Race bibs and chip timing ankle straps are collected at registration on the morning of the event. The organiser operates a results leaderboard and maintains course records.
Facilities include an indoor building with bag drop, toilets, changing rooms and showers. An on-site aid station supplies water, fruit, sweet and savoury snacks, energy bars and electrolytes from the event sponsor. Participants are asked to bring their own bottles as cups are not provided. A small kitchen with hot water, a microwave and two small electric hobs is available for use when possible. The start and finish line also serves as the main aid station and spectator area; crews may set up individual aid points there. Twenty four hour entrants may pitch tents on the grass internal to the track. Participants under 12 are not permitted; entrants aged 12 to 15 must have a parent or guardian attend and make prior arrangements with the organiser.
