Beginner-friendly
High input evidence · 88% 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.
Selected-edition source check · 2026-09-08
The retrieved organiser entry page records the 10 October 2026 solo 50km edition, a 14-hour overall limit and the £120 fee tier ending 5 October. A separate 4% service fee (minimum 50p) makes that £124.80 for the recorded solo entry plus this fee, not £120 all-in. Relay prices are separate. The page reports open entries, but the retrieved copy is cached: this review is not a new opening or live-availability guarantee. The existing 602m ascent and its original guide provenance have not been changed or newly verified by this entry-page check.
Weather, conditions and individual preparation can change the real difficulty significantly.

Course analysis
What shapes this race
Expect forest trail that may change character in wet conditions.
trailforestroadmixed
Climbing density
12m 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 14h, the raw average required is 16:48 per kilometre (27:01 per mile), including every stop.
Raw pace16:48/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.
6.2/10 suitability
Navigation
fully marked
The route is described as marked, but runners should still read the final race instructions.
Exposure & kit
unknown 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.

Latest verification
Trust the source, see the gaps.
Data HighOfficial 2026 materials confirm 602m, a marked course, compulsory downloaded GPX/map and a 14-hour limit, making the fixed-distance facts predictor-ready. The linked legacy route's approximately 51.1K is retained as a distance conflict rather than replacing the marketed 50K. A stale FAQ weekday/date reference conflicts with Saturday 10 October 2026. Three- and six-person relays are companion categories.
