FOUR RUNNERS. FOUR ORIGINAL DISTANCES. ONE INCREDIBLE JOURNEY ⛰️

Since our inaugural event in 2023, Tom, Beth, Mike and Gary have kept coming back to take on a new 13 Valleys challenge.

This year, they could become the first runners to complete every one of our four original distances: 2 Valleys, 5 Valleys, 7 Valleys and 13 Valleys 😱👏

🏃 Tom began with 2 Valleys at our first event in 2023 and has worked his way up to what he calls the “bonkers” 13 Valleys this year!

🏃 Beth is also stepping up to the full 13 Valleys this year, 'only' 180km to complete her set!

🏃 Mike completed 7 Valleys in 2024 and 13 Valleys in 2025. This year, he’s taking on both 5 Valleys on Saturday and 2 Valleys on Sunday.

🏃 Gary from Tea & Trails is doing the same with a huge double ahead: 5 Valleys on Saturday followed by 2 Valleys on Sunday.

Four different journeys towards the same extraordinary goal.

We’ll be cheering them on throughout event weekend, and you’ll be able to follow all four runners live on their dedicated OpenTracking page.

Whatever happens out on the trails, thank you for being such an important part of the 13 Valleys story. 💛

Elite field update 👀

There’s been a shake-up at the sharp end of the 13 Valleys Ultra.

Mark Darbyshire, winner of the inaugural 13 Valleys Ultra in 2023, is stepping up from the 5 Valleys and will now be taking on the full 13 Valleys once again.

And joining him on the start line is Andy Berry, adding even more strength to an already stacked men’s field...

With just over a week to go, here’s how the Top 5 men line up by ITRA Performance Index.
