The Trent Valley Ultra, organized by Quadrio Events for its third consecutive year, invites trail runners and ultra enthusiasts to experience a unique 50k journey from one brewery to another. This meticulously crafted race offers an exhilarating blend of challenging terrain and scenic beauty across Nottinghamshire. Participants will traverse charming villages and picturesque landscapes via footpaths, bridleways, tracks, and minor roads. The course is designed with strategic checkpoints every 6-8 miles, ensuring runners remain well-hydrated and energized throughout their journey. This thoughtful support system caters to all levels of experience, from first-time ultra marathon participants to seasoned racers aiming for the course record. Registration begins at 7:30am in a conveniently located parking area near the start line, where breakfast options are available from a specially selected food vendor. The race kicks off promptly at 9:00am, setting runners on their path through diverse and captivating terrain. For those who prefer to share this adventure with another runner, entry as a pair offers an attractive discount without requiring both participants to run together. Upon completing the course, finishers are greeted by more food vendors offering a variety of culinary delights, along with access to the Milestone tap room where they can celebrate their achievement. The event concludes with entertainment provided by Quadrio's resident DJ, adding to the festive atmosphere. Each participant receives a commemorative pint glass as part of their finisher’s prize. In addition to these highlights, runners have the option to purchase XCover insurance for peace of mind, which provides reimbursement in case they are unable to attend due to unforeseen circumstances. The Trent Valley Ultra promises an unforgettable day filled with scenic beauty and camaraderie, making it a must-attend event for trail running enthusiasts.

About Newark
Learn more about the host city, Newark.
Newark is New Jersey's largest city and second largest in Metro New York. Although one of the great historic cities of the Northeast and the most culture-rich city in the state, Newark is often overlooked in favor of Goliath-like Manhattan and towns along the Hudson River, such as Jersey City and Hoboken. While no longer the industrial powerhouse it once was, Newark remains one of America's major shipping, rail, and air hubs. Public transportation is abundant, making it easy to get to, from, and around the city.
