On 19 April 2026, the Bath & Bristol Railway Races will run from Green Park, Bath, tracing the historic railway path to Bristol Temple Meads and back. Distances offered are 10 km, half marathon, 25 km (point-to-point finish in Bristol), marathon, and 50 km. All routes (except the 25 km) use an out-and-back format; the 25 km starts in Bath and finishes in Bristol. The route is 100 % tarmac and flat, making it one of the fastest road-style ultra options. Key features include the Staple Hill Tunnel (≈ 450 m, lit) on the longer courses and running alongside the Avon Valley Railway in sections. Cutoffs are in place for the marathon and 50 km: for example, participants must begin their return leg within certain times (e.g. 3.5 hr into the marathon to aim for a 7.5 hour finish; 4 hr cutoff for 50 km aiming for ~8.5 hr total).
