Foxton Hound Ultra is Race Harborough's dual-distance ultramarathon offering 100 km and 50 km options on Saturday 15 August 2026. It provides a challenge for seasoned ultra runners and a great stepping stone for those looking to go further than marathon distance. The event starts and finishes at Winwick Hall (Winwick, NN6 7PD) and is organised under a TRA licence and UKA rules. Prizes are awarded to the top three men and women in each race and all finishers receive a bespoke event medal.
The courses largely follow the Harborough Round long‑distance footpath and traverse the countryside and villages around Market Harborough, passing landmarks such as Foxton Locks, Naseby Battlefield and the Kelmarsh Tunnel. Runners are expected to self‑navigate with GPX files, written route instructions and taped waymarks provided, and the 100k includes seven aid stations while the 50k includes three. Mandatory kit and safety requirements are specified on the event page, the race is cupless (bring your own cup) and pacers are permitted on the 100k from Checkpoint 5. GPX downloads, route instructions, results from previous years and merchandise pre‑orders are available from Race Harborough's official webpages.
