The MTC Severn Way Ultra
The MTC Severn Way Ultra is a point-to-point endurance race covering approximately 57 miles along the River Severn. The route runs from Travelodge Worcester to Travelodge Stonehouse and passes through Grimley, Worcester, Upton-on-Severn, Tewkesbury, Gloucester, Epney, Priding and Frampton-on-Severn.
The event has four checkpoint stations offering food and drink. Competitors can select vegan or gluten free options during entry. If other dietary needs apply, runners must provide their own labelled supplies for each checkpoint. The event is cup-free, so competitors should bring a reusable cup.
Navigation can be difficult in places where the Severn Path becomes overgrown, so the organisers recommend using GPX files. The race enforces a minimum pace of 4.0 miles per hour and has mandatory checkpoint cut-offs; competitors who fall below the required pace may be removed from the event.
All finishers receive a bespoke MTC Severn Way Ultra medal and a MTC head visor. Podium awards and Mount to Coast shoes are provided to the top finishers as part of the race prizes.
Standard solo entry is £90.00 and all payments are non-refundable. Entrants must meet the event age requirement and carry mandatory kit items.
