CBTE Winter Wirral Ultra
The CBTE Winter Wirral Ultra is a 36 mile circular route that takes place on 14 November 2026 and starts and finishes at Hooton Memorial Hall, Waterworks Lane, Hooton, Wirral CH66 7NL. The event is organised by The Charm Bracelet Marathon.
The course is largely flat with about 812 ft of elevation and follows the well sign-posted Wirral Circular Trail in an anticlockwise direction. It includes coastal sections of the Wirral Peninsula and follows the Wirral Way for the final 12 miles. Although the trail has signage, additional signs are added and the route is therefore partially self navigational. Organisers note there is a lot of hard terrain which may not suit runners who only run technical trails.
There is a 12 hour cutoff and five checkpoints on the route offering water and snacks. Entry includes a finisher medal, drinks and snacks, and a GPS tracker for open tracking; an optional finisher t shirt is available for an additional £10. The event is limited to 430 participants and has a minimum age of 20. Prizes include trophies for first male, first female and first non binary, plus first male and female in the 50, 60 and 70 age categories.
