Ultra X: Wales
About the event
Ultra X Wales takes place in and around southern Snowdonia in western Wales. It offers a choice of races; Ultra X 110 Wales, Ultra X 60 Wales and Ultra X 50 Wales.
An Ultra X race is the ultimate test of preparation. A participant who has planned and trained well will be a successful one. It is just as important that participants calculate their water, electrolyte and food requirements, as it is their pacing, during this two-day adventure. This is not a self-supported race. Participants only need to carry their daily provisions of mandatory safety equipment, nutrition and hydration.
Race holdalls are held at the campsite and are available for competitors before and after each stage. Fully stocked aid stations are provided approximately 10km apart
