Racing across mountains, hills, fells and trails in Ultra-marathon distances is great for the soul,. However, the opportunity to record fast, flat miles over Ultra distances is not often achievable. For this reason, The Canalathon was created.
No navigation needed, no hill climbing necessary, just worry about getting from point A to B, starting in Manchester and finishing at our Race HQ at The Sowerby Bridge Cricket Club.
