Now in its 11th Year! The Brecon to Cardiff Ultra is a 70k, one way, fully marked race that winds its way from Brecon following the Taff Trail. It has become a staple in the ultra running calendar and is a great choice for a first ultra or a fast time for the start of the year. You will start in the Brecon Beacons National Park with its dramatic mountain landscapes, pass crashing waterfalls and crystal clear reservoirs. As you head further south you will encounter a different landscape with reminders of Wales’s industrial heritage.
The first 30k of the route is almost exclusively on footpath or Forestry Trails. The checkpoint at Merthyr allows a shoe change as the remainder of the route route follows a off road cycle path all the way to the finish. As the route is linear competitors park at the finish and be are transported, by coach, to the start in Brecon.
