Race For You difficulty
3.2/ 10
Beginner-friendly
High input evidence · 84% evidence coverage
The main recorded demands are balanced overall demands. Course difficulty and cutoff pressure describe different challenges: more approachable terrain can still require a demanding pace to beat the deadline. Neither score assesses your personal fitness, safety or readiness.
Scoring details and version
Difficulty V2's separate time-limit modifier adds 0.00 points here and is capped at 0.70; a broad limit cannot erase extreme intrinsic demand. This is independent of the public Cutoff Pressure V2 band. Evidence coverage describes the recorded inputs, not prediction accuracy or your likelihood of finishing.
Weather, conditions and individual preparation can change the real difficulty significantly.

Course analysis
What shapes this race
Expect sustained upland ground and meaningful climbing, forest trail that may change character in wet conditions.
trailfellforestroadmixed
Climbing density
18.5m per km
A more useful comparison than total ascent alone: it shows how consistently the course asks you to climb.
Cutoff analysis
Lower pressure
To finish inside 12h 30m, the raw average required is 15:32 per kilometre (25:00 per mile), including every stop.
Raw pace15:32/km
PressureLower pressure
Cutoff pressure compares the published time limit with distance, ascent and verified course demands. Lower pressure does not mean the race is easy. Raw pace includes checkpoints, food stops, navigation errors and any sleep; it is not a pacing plan.
Who this suits
First ultra?
A realistic target for a prepared runner with some trail or ultra experience, but not the softest possible introduction to the distance.
5.7/10 suitability
Navigation
partially marked
Do not assume closed-road-race levels of signage. Know the organiser’s navigation requirements and keep the official route available.
Exposure & kit
moderate kit
Some entrants may run into darkness depending on pace and start time. Prepare lighting even if your best-case plan finishes earlier.
Personal race predictor
Prediction unavailable
No current compatible predictor target is available for this family. The selected edition may be complete or cancelled, awaiting a successor, non-standard, or missing model-critical course evidence; older facts are not substituted.

Data PartialThe organiser explicitly markets this 30-mile/48.3km course as an ultra, so it is an approximately-50K edge inclusion. The published 22 August entry deadline has passed despite stale open-entry copy. The 09:30–22:00 schedule supports 12.5 hours; route marking is intentionally limited and route familiarity is advised.
