Round The Island Isle of Wight Multistage Ultra
June 25th to 26th 2011
70 miles 2 days
After the great success of the 2010 Round The Island
event, Extreme Energy are delighted to put in the diary the Round
The Island 2011 multistage ultra, following the Isle of Wight
Coastal Path.
The Round The Island sailing race is an annual,
famous event which up to 2000 yachts take part in every year, from
professional racers on huge yachts to amateurs and families on their
smaller boats.
So we thought wouldn’t it be fun to run a Round The
Island Race on the same weekend.
We will run clockwise round the island which will
mean that amongst the stunning views of the main land and the
English Channel we will be able to see all the boats come around the
Island as the afternoon goes on.
We will be in West Cowes Friday night. The place will
be buzzing with yachties prior to the next days racing.
This event will suit those who want a new challenge,
people looking for an alternative to running marathons, those
training for events like the Marathon des Sables or anyone who would
just wants a fabulous scenic run around the Isle of Wight with a
great fun environment and great bunch of people.
The event is open to runners and walkers.
