Taunton, United Kingdom • 9 May 2026
The Westcountry Ultra Flat 50 is a 50-mile point-to-point ultramarathon held in Somerset, England, ideal for first-time 50-mile runners or those seeking a fast race. The course features a pancake-flat first half along the Taunton to Bridgwater Canal Path and the River Parrett Trail, with opportunities to spot local wildlife. The second half is more undulating but with only a quarter of the elevation of the Hilly 50, passing through scenic areas including Steart Marshes, Hinkley Point, Kilve Beach, and the Quantock Hills, finishing in Minehead. The race includes six aid stations, is cupless, and offers a supportive atmosphere with medical coverage and crew support allowed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
