This Feb­ru­ary Ultra X are doing some­thing unusu­al and host­ing an event in the UK!

For those who are not yet ready to com­mit five days hol­i­day for an Ultra X event just yet why not join us for a day in Guild­ford, only a half hour train from Lon­don, where we will talk all things Ultra.

For our Sri Lanka signups this is an oppor­tun­ity to meet some of your fel­low com­pet­it­ors, get some use­ful inform­a­tion for the April and try on some kit.

For any­one else this is an oppor­tun­ity to find out some more about the world of Ultra X without hav­ing to sign down to run/walk 250 kilo­metres.

Start­ing at 11 am we will hold talks on how to suc­ceed in a multi-day race, and intro­duce a little bit of exclus­ive info on the Sri Lanka race!

We have teamed up with Exped­i­tion Foods who are going to be provid­ing some nutri­tious lunches for you to try, as well as pur­chase at a spe­cial price.

After this we have Likey’s on site, our UK equip­ment sup­pli­er, who will be offer­ing kit demon­stra­tions and oppor­tun­it­ies to test lim­ited edi­tion gear. You will also have access to a one-off week­end dis­count.

Just One Body, our amaz­ing osteo­paths who are on hand dur­ing all Ultra X events, will also be talk­ing about the essen­tial exer­cises you should be focus­ing on as run­ners, how to recov­er post exer­cise and how to make your bod­ies work as effi­ciently as pos­sible.

We will be all fin­ished up with the talks at 4 pm mean­ing that you can all head back to Lon­don should you wish. Altern­at­ively, there will be an option for some head torch run­ning and an oppor­tun­ity to test poles whilst jog­ging along the beau­ti­ful North Downs Way Trail before return­ing to din­ner.

This day would be great for those pre­par­ing for any trail or moun­tain ultra, but also for those who are curi­ous about ultra run­ning and Ultra X.

We only have 40 places avail­able and it will be first come first served so do not miss the oppor­tun­ity to get involved. Register now!
