John Muir Way Nocturnal Ultra Marathon - 7 November 2026
The John Muir Way Nocturnal Ultra Marathon is a six hour night event in which participants run a well marked off road loop of 5 km as many times as they can. Runners may take part solo or in relay teams of up to three.
Each lap passes a tented base where participants can leave kit, access food and receive support. Participants are asked to bring appropriate trail kit and a headtorch or multiple headtorches. The event will include music, lighting, food provision and may include fire features.
The event organisers provide a race briefing and course details. In extreme weather the race may be cancelled or rescheduled; entries will be transferred to a rescheduled date where possible. If a new date is offered and a participant cannot attend, a 75% refund may be available if requested within one month in certain circumstances. If rescheduling is not possible entries may be rolled forward to the following year and a 75% refund may be offered in some cases. The organisers do not accept responsibility for travel or accommodation costs if the event is cancelled.
Participant withdrawal and transfer rules apply. Transfers via the entry platform incur a £10 administration fee. Refunds follow a sliding scale depending on how close to the event the withdrawal is made, with no refunds within 14 days of the event and no refunds during the event.
