About the race
The PB50km Ultra is a self-navigated trail run of approximately 50 km based out of the historic village of Hayfield. The route is a grand loop using sections of the Pennine Bridleway, Pennine Way and Limestone Way, and covers varied terrain across the Peak District with a total ascent of 1840 metres.
Runners choose their start time within a flexible window and may run solo or with others. The event uses public rights of way and official National Trail and local footpath finger posts for route finding. Ranger Ultras provide on-course and HQ support through their Safety Team.
A new course was introduced for 2026. The event includes navigation notes and a GPX file provided to entrants, on-course snacks, fruit and water, and HQ provisions such as tea, coffee, soft drinks and pizza. Finishers receive eco-medals, and trophies are awarded for first male and first female overall plus male and female age categories 20-49 and 50+.
The PB50 is organised under a Trail Running Association permit and England Athletics competition rules. Participants must be at least 20 years old on race day. Registration is managed through Si-Entries and places are limited; the 2026 event sold out. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
