Rutland Ultra 2026

Rutland’s lanes, fields, and forested trails define this ultra: quiet English countryside with enough challenge to keep you honest. The Rutland Ultra is described as an adventure in the heart of Rutland, meaning long trail miles through a picturesque county, with charming villages and pastoral stretches breaking up the effort. Expect a demanding, varied route with significant climbing and descending, suitable for experienced runners and anyone seeking a proper test rather than a casual jog. The appeal lies in the wild beauty of trail running meeting the serenity of the English countryside: winding paths, heritage underfoot, and a field that will likely be there for the same reason you are, to find out what happens when the easy miles are long gone.
