Back for its fifth year!
Come and take on the Table Mountain in the Black Mountains of Wales. The 10 hour 4-mile strenuous and technical loop race is a test of endurance and determination.
This is only for the brave!

Park Farm Llangattock is once again the perfect starting point for this – the third in our Beast series. Leaving the field you head via a small but steep lane which leads onto a small section of the Brecon and Monmouthshire canal. Minutes later you will be on the trail through fields and ancient walkways, before climbing to the top of the Llangattock Escarpment. Views here are out of this world! the climb will be worth it that we promise.

The Loop Ultra 32 Mile trail event is a great challenge amongst some spectacular, harsh but stimulating trails within the remote and less explored Cambrian Mountains of Mid Wales. Attracting runners from the elite to the ultra beginner, you will not be disappointed.
Please note that due to the unique wild and natural location, with its emphasis on sustainability, this is an exclusive event that we will cap at 100 runners (plus friends and family)

We are excited to deliver a maybe much needed Ultra after all the food & wine consumed over Christmas and the New Year. With a little twist to the rules as we launch.
We intend to give medals to anyone who reaches 32 miles ie ULTRA, the winning Male and Female who are last standing will be allocated a TROPHY.
Set just outside Crickhowell deep in the Black Mountains the route will be 50/50 Trail and Tarmac, with only one gradual climb and a short steep section, the rest is relatively flat terrain which mean fast.

Limitless Trails – Beast of the Beacons 10, 20 and 40 Mile Trail Running Challenge
@ Llangynidr Village Hall
Mar 8 all-day
The Beast of the Blacks 10, 20 and 40 is a great challenge amongst some spectacular, harsh but stimulating trails within the Majestic Black Mountains of Wales. Attracting runners from the elite to the beginner you will not be disappointed by this event. The event will be marked with the added support of marshals. Generous cut off times of 5 hrs for the 10 mile, 8 hours for the 20 mile route and 16 hours for the 40 mile route will ensure that you can tame the beast. The 40 mile event will be a reverse of the 20 mile loop so whatever scenery you miss on the first lap, you can capture on the second lap.
