The island of Tiree; 11 miles long, 6 miles wide, famed for it’s white sandy beaches, blue skies, unspoilt landscape, and no midges! Tiree’s coastline is rugged, beautifully carved, and adorned with long stretches of firm sandy beach. The complete circumference takes in 35 miles of the finest Hebridean scenery. And that is the Tiree Ultramarathon – The Land Below the Waves.

The route will start and finish on Gott Bay. The longest of the 14 beaches you will visit. This legendary beach has been known to test the bravest of souls. Hail, wind, rain and even snow has lashed across these sands. But more often than not Tiree is bathed in bright sunshine. Whatever the day brings, your ultramarathon journey starts and finishes here:
Race HQ will be at The Lodge Hotel all weekend including event sign-in, number collection and finish info. The Lodge Hotel will be serving food, and there will be live music and celebrations well into the evening. Full details and timings will be sent out nearer the time. It's going to be an amazing weekend. See you on the beach!
If you can no longer make it to the event for any reason:
In either case, please let us know via email as soon as you know you're not able to attend.
Please note - there are no transfers or deferals of places at any time.
We try and make this as simple and clear as possible. And in order to be fair to everyone please don't ask us to make exceptions to the above policy.
EVENT CANCELLATION: If the event has to be cancelled for any reason owing to forces outside the organisers control, NO entry fees will be refunded. This includes cancellation due to weather conditions.
TRAVEL DISRUPTION: If your ferry or plane is cancelled and you declined the offer of event insurance then we cannot provide a refund or deferral. We strongly advise you take out the cancellation insurance policy to cover you for travel disruption.
Those are the formal bits! Having a clear policy allows us to be fair to everyone - and to create an event that is sustainable and that we can deliver from a place like Tiree with limited local infrastructure. We look forward to seeing you on the start line!
