The Peak District 100 (incorporating the Peak District 50 and 33) is a new trail ultra-marathon which will take runners on a truly spectacular tour of the UK’s original National Park. With 50 miles in the ‘Dark Peak’ and 50 Miles in the ‘White Peak’, this will be a real showcase for the stunning views, diverse landscapes and rich history the Peaks has to offer. With plenty of elevation gain, the course offers a significant challenge for participants at all levels, while also having plenty of runnable terrain.

Brought to you by the guys at Peak Running and Beyond Marathon, who have a mountain of ultra running and race organising experience between them, this will definitely be one for your book-it list.

Whether you’re an experienced ultra-runner looking for a new challenge, or someone dreaming of going beyond a marathon for the first time, this new event in the Peak District offers a fantastic opportunity to achieve your ambitions in a most spectacular setting.

As well as the race itself, we’re putting on a series of events to help you prepare. There will be series of organised training / recce runs taking in sections of the course, and a full day Masterclass workshop covering all aspects of trail and ultra running, including training, up/down-hill technique, navigation, kit and nutrition. All of these will be led by our qualified coaching coaching staff with 20+ years experience of running ultras around the world.
