The Peak District Ultras are three races wrapped into one epic weekend of adventure in our favourite local playground, the Peak District National Park.

The plateau of limestone, which provides the natural foundation of the ‘White Peak’ area, is the inspiration behind the name of our Limestone 50. The distance and elevation mean it’s a serious undertaking, but the generous time limit makes it accessible to a wide range of runners and strong hikers. A wonderful route with something different to see around every corner.
