Course and practical information

The route follows the Otley Green Gateways/Meanwood Valley Trail corridors and remains largely off-road despite proximity to Leeds. Provisional GPX files and a route description are provided; the final GPX and competitor instructions are emailed before the race and must be used for any last-minute diversions. All ultramarathon entrants receive a tracker; half-marathon and 20-mile runners may hire a tracker for £15. Checkpoints provide drinks, energy bars and vegan/gluten-free options. There are three checkpoints in total; the 34.1-mile course visits all three, the 20.0-mile course visits two, and the 14.0-mile course visits one. Checkpoint closing times act as cutoffs and arriving after a cutoff results in retirement from the race. Registration is at Otley Cricket Club and parking is provided at a nearby car park on Bremner Street. Every finisher receives a medal and an event T-shirt (unless they opt out).
