National Championship Events for 2027

Our National Championships are annual events over various times, surfaces and distances. They provide a clear opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to:

• Runners - to support their journey, respect their effort, and build a clear pathway to compete, develop and thrive.
• Race Directors - to champion their work, listen to their feedback, and offer practical support without red tape.
• Volunteers - to acknowledge their service, celebrate their stories, and create ways for them to grow with us.
• The Trail - to protect it, promote stewardship, and ensure every decision respects the land we run on.

We received a competitive list of applications this year and we thank all Race Directors and event organisers for their interest in hosting a National Championship in 2027. The committee had some extremely hard choices to make as all events bring their own unique charm to ultra and trail running. 

We are looking forward to a great year ahead of running!

So without further ado, the events selected to host a National Championship 2027 event as follows:
