Yellow Belly 50 Mile Ultramarathon Summer Edition
The Yellow Belly Summer 50 Mile is a circular ultramarathon through the Lincolnshire Wolds, starting and finishing at Swallow Village Hall, Lincolnshire LN7 6DL, on 18 September 2027. The course covers 50 miles with approximately 1,370 m (4,500 ft) of elevation and follows sections of the Viking Way through historic villages and rolling arable farmland.
The event has an 18 hour hard cut off and four fully stocked aid stations along the route. Entries are strictly limited to 150 runners. Mandatory kit is required and there is an evening registration and kit check the day before the race to simplify race day procedures. Parking at Swallow Village is very limited, and organisers request car sharing to reduce congestion.
GPX route files are provided for Ordnance Survey maps and for Garmin devices. All runners who finish within the 18 hour limit receive a bespoke Yellow Belly finisher medal. Prizes are awarded to the first three male and first three female finishers.
The format is a single 50 mile loop on firm ground with rolling terrain that offers both sustained climbs and runnable sections. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
