The Beacons Ultra
The Beacons Ultra 2010 – Saturday 20th November 2010
The Beacons Ultra will take place on Saturday 20th November within the stunning Brecon Beacons National Park. This latest offer from 'Likeys' threads its way through some of the best countryside the British Isles has to offer. The route is a real mix of picturesque canal towpath, ancient mining tram roads and high mountain passes.
The event will see competitors attempt a challenging 45 mile (approx) course, designed to be navigational friendly, yet providing the opportunity to experience, safely some of the fantastic mountain terrain the Brecon Beacons National Park has to offer.
The event will provide the perfect challenge either as a ‘grand day out’ or for athletes preparing for multi day events in 2011 such as the Marathon des Sables or 6633 Ultra. Equally, the basic navigation requirements and well marked and marshalled course will provide an excellent opportunity for those athletes taking their first steps in to the world of Ultra Marathons.
