We have always looked for ways to make them more affordable, and we are excited to announce a range of new measures to lower the financial barriers to entering these big races.

Into ultra is a registered charity that aims to bring more diversity and inclusivity to ultra running. It’s founded by Andrew Heaney (Basil), Damian Hall, Shirin Shabestari and a few other keen ultra runners who are passionate about the sport/community.

When we think about endurance running events, our minds often jump to miles logged, elevation climbed, and personal bests smashed. But there's another powerful metric that’s starting to earn its place at the finish line: carbon savings.

The Road to Reduction - Transport and Carbon. As we head into 2025, and plan for another year of racing, we're making efforts to think carefully about these take-home items: clothing, medals, and merchandise. The emissions associated with these items makes up over 3.5% of Ourea's total carbon footprint, so they are not to be taken lightly.
