About this race
The Ultra Loop in Heaton Park is an 8-hour looped ultra race in Manchester, held at Heaton Park on Middleton Road. Each lap covers 5 km, with the objective to complete any number of laps within the 8-hour duration. The race takes place on a March weekend, offering entry options for Saturday, Sunday, or the entire weekend.
The format allows runners to manage their race: they can stop after several laps, aim for maximum distance, or utilize the consistent course for pacing, nutrition, and rest. Resolute Running is the organizer, and the full-weekend ticket permits participants to repeat the 8-hour challenge on the following day.
