Ham & Lyme 50k/100k

Description:

50k – By far our most popular event: could be up to a few hundred runners on the day. For most this is a highly social and laid back run to the seaside through a slideshow of sublime South-West scenery, following the Liberty Trail – a route based on the journey taken by six villagers in 1685 to join the Monmouth Rebellion. The sharp end of the field has become highly competitive on both the male and female side, so if you want a race then be sure you’ll get one! The famous colourful ammonite medal has now become a tattoo for at least five different people and the atmosphere at the seaside for the finish is incredible. Makes a great first ultra and has been for many people.
100k – An out and back starting and finishing in Lyme Regis with Ham Hill as the half way point. You get to see the stunning Liberty Trail in both directions. As 100ks go this one has less elevation than some but is definitely not pancake flat; undulating describes most of the route well with just a few longer climbs each way. Magnificent medal, seaside finish, unforgettable experience of passing the entire 50k field as you approach the half way point; always a huge amount of encouragement!
