The Ultra Loop - Temple Newsam, Leeds

The Ultra Loop is an 8 hour, looped ultramarathon held at Temple Newsam Park in Leeds. Participants run repeated laps of a measured 5 km loop that combines woodland trail, gravel paths and park road. The route explores Temple Newsam's woodlands and gardens and has approximately 88 m of elevation.

The event records lap counts, total distance and elapsed time for each participant. A finishing time and a medal are awarded regardless of how many laps a participant completes. Any laps not completed before the event cut-off are not included in final results. Organisers maintain a results leaderboard and course records.

Practical arrangements include email confirmation and an event guide after entry, and race bibs are collected at registration on the morning of the event. There is a single aid station located at the start/finish area. The aid station provides water, fruit, sweet and savoury snacks, energy bars and electrolytes from the event sponsor. Participants are asked to bring their own bottles because cups are not provided. A bag drop is available and portaloos are located at the aid station.

The course is not closed to the public, so runners may encounter walkers and dogs. Entry fee is listed as £34.
