Carlisle Castle, Carlisle, Cumbria, United Kingdom
The Wall Ultramarathon is Rat Race Adventure Sports' iconic 70-mile one-way event from Carlisle Castle to Baltic Quay, Gateshead. The route is fully waymarked and fully supported, with five pit stops, sweepers and medical/welfare teams along Hadrian's Wall country. The event is designed for walkers and runners with a generous 26-hour cut-off and departure-time based cut-offs to aid completion; GPX and a training plan are provided. The 2026 edition is listed as sold out on the organiser page.
Participants receive a finisher medal and a Rat Rag, with an optional pre-order event T-shirt available; entries include a charity donation to Children with Cancer UK and fundraising options with incentives. Safety is emphasised throughout the event and the operation is audited to BS8848 standards, with mandatory kit lists and staffed pit stops. Logistics are arranged for this one-way route, including post-finish shuttle options back to transport hubs, and the organiser provides detailed pre-event briefings and route materials.
