About the event

We are honoured to have been chosen to host the British 24 Hour Championships 2026. Race will open 4th February'26.

Each September, a selection of experienced and promising Ultra runners take on the physical and mental challenge of covering the greatest distance they can run in 24 hours, completing as many loops of the track as possible. First held in 1989, this race has produced many great performances, National and World Best Records, and is renowned for its superb organisation.
