About The Silkin Way Ultra (and half

Runners can choose between a half marathon or 50K ultra when The Silkin Way Ultra returns for its 11th edition. Both distances start together at 9am from Li Garden in Telford on 27 March 2027, following a road route that begins by the River Severn and heads north through Bratton before looping back through Telford's centre. The route then turns west towards Coalbrookdale and Ironbridge, taking in countryside and industrial heritage landmarks across the area.

The event is designed with accessibility in mind, particularly for those attempting their first ultra. The route is clearly marked with maps, GPX files, chalk arrows and council way markers, while aid stations at key distances provide drinks and food throughout the course. Known for its friendly, low-key atmosphere, the event attracts runners seeking a welcoming, community-focused experience rather than a high-pressure race environment.
