Race Description

50 Miles. 18 Hours. One Cold, Dark Adventure.

The Lincolnshire Wolds are beautiful in the summer, but in February, they are a different beast entirely. The Yellow Belly Winter 50 takes our classic circular route and turns the difficulty dial up. With freezing temperatures, biting winds, and limited daylight, this isn’t just a run, it’s a battle against the elements.

This is the ultimate test for those looking to conquer their first 50 mile ultramarathon or seasoned veterans chasing a winter challenge.


The Challenge

Don't let the "flat" reputation of Lincolnshire fool you. This course packs a punch with 1,370m (4,500ft) of ascent, rolling through the heart of the Wolds and along the historic Viking Way.

You will start in the dark and, for many, you will finish in the dark. The mud will be frozen (or deep), the hills will feel steeper, and the warmth of the finish line will never feel so earned.

  • 4 Fully Stocked Aid Stations: Food, hydration and encouragement when you need it most.

Rewards

  • Additional Prizes: For 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place Male and Female finishers.
