Ultra Marathon Events

We're absolutely delighted to be back at the wonderful Denbies Wine Estate for our Fire Horse Run and we're also celebrating Judy Totterdell's 100th Marathon! This is one of our timed events where you choose - from 5km to 10k, half to marathon to ultra you can complete as many, or as few, laps as you like of a 5.3km, 3.28 mile, looped course around the beautiful Denbies Wine Estate within the overall 7 hour time limit. We welcome all abilities of runner - complete one loop and you're both a finisher and a winner in our eyes, or keep going and see how far you can get in the full 7 hour time limit and everyone gets the fabulous bespoke finishers' medal. We also operate our uniquely flexible 'rock up and run' start times within a 1 hour start window, so no waiting around if you arrive early and no added pressure if you're running a bit late. If you have any special start time requirements then just get in touch because depending on the distance you are planning to run we can pretty much accommodate all start time requests. Whilst Phoenix Running is very much about the bling and our medals are second to none, we're also acutely conscious that events can be expensive to enter and times are tough right now. We're now in our 9th year of fixed prices for our standard themed events, but to try and do our bit we're trailing a 'no medal' entry option at a flat £22. We cover our base costs, you get a run with all the usual Phoenix support, epic aid station, same day results published, athletes profiles, Phoenix World, digital BIBs, digital finishers certificates, etc, etc but without a medal we can keep the price low for this entry option. Not sure? Well the beauty of this format is that you don't even need to decide in advance - simply come and run a lap and see how you feel on the day and keep on going if it feels right. Places will be strictly limited so don't leave it too late to enter. Minimum distance is 3.28 miles or as far as you can go in 7 hours. Off road trail, through the wine estate with the odd hill thrown in. Undulating and hilly.

The Phoenix Minotaur 50 Mile, Hydra 75 Mile and Centaur 100 Mile Ultra Marathons are back - a 50, 75 and 100 mile 'beast' with a difference! Whether you're a seasoned ultra runner or a complete first timer, here at Phoenix we aim to create an awesome running environment which is safe, inclusive, friendly and fun and allows you to achieve things you perhaps never thought possible. We will support you to succeed! Firstly, you get up to 30 hours to finish the event - that's right from 8.00am on Saturday 20th June right through to 2.00pm on Sunday 21st June, so if you fancy having a go at your very first 50 , 75 or 100 miler, or perhaps your first time running at night, then you won't find a longer cut off time anywhere. The route is a single 1 mile loop, which we've made as flat as we possibly can and just to add to the fun we have a 12/24 hour event and half / marathon events going on at the same time with other runners coming and going to keep you company. When you get to 50 / 75 / 100 miles you'll be a Finisher and get the epic Minotaur, Hydra or Centaur medal/buckle! The event is fully chip timed so you don't need to worry about keeping track of laps - we'll do all of that for you and can tell you exactly how far you've run each time you pass the awesomely well stocked aid station. Places will be strictly limited so don't leave it too late to enter. Off road trail, through the wine estate on a flat 1 mile route. Flat, with slight cambers.
