MTC Vampire

The MTC Vampire, running from Bristol to Bridgwater, is a single-day ultra with a point-to-point character and few opportunities to rest. Introduced in 2029, it is part of the Mount to Coast End to End Challenge Series and also serves as Day 9 of the England End to End Challenge, ALBION. The event is themed around "Myths & Legends of England," but the objective is simple: maintain forward progress. The course uses the same path as the organiser's JOGLE race, with ultra runners sharing sections of the day with ALBION participants. Expect stringent cut-off times and a finisher medal. A practical detail for race day is that it is cup-free; participants must provide their own reusable cup. The event presents itself as a disciplined, straightforward challenge rather than a festive gathering: commence, control your speed, pass the checkpoints, and conclude in Bridgwater.
