Rat Race 100 Bamburgh To Edinburgh

The Rat Race 100 Bamburgh To Edinburgh begins at Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland at 6:00am, covering 100 miles toward Edinburgh. This July ultra is designed for runners and walkers aiming for the distance without the typical challenges associated with 100-milers. Rat Race establishes the moving completion pace at 2.5mph, welcoming steady walkers alongside runners. Participants navigate using arrows, their bags are transported, support runners can join at designated points, and organizers assist with return transport to the Bamburgh car park post-event. For many, it offers a first serious attempt at the 100-mile distance, rather than being exclusively for seasoned ultra runners.
