Both the Cape Wrath Ultra® and the Berghaus Dragon’s Back Race® will take place annually from 2021. Until now both events occurred biennially in May, with the Cape Wrath Ultra® in 2016 and 2018 (and 2020), and the Berghaus Dragon’s Back Race® in 2017 and 2019.

THE SHORTLIST FOR THE PRESTIGIOUS NATIONAL OUTDOOR EVENTS ASSOCIATION AWARDS 2019 HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED.

THE BERGHAUS DRAGON’S BACK RACE® FROM OUREA EVENTS, HAS BEEN NOMINATED FOR THE SPORTING EVENT OF THE YEAR AWARD.

The John Muir Trust, Fix the Fells and Woodland Trust have all received donations from Ourea Events as part of their 2018 annual 1% For The Planet contribution.

At the last 10Peaks™ event organised by Ourea Events in the Brecon Beacons, a series of events led to untreated water being supplied to some of the participants at one of the aid stations. As the Race Director, this has caused me to do some serious reflecting on our standard operating procedures, and in the interests of transparency and with a strong desire to share some learning points, I am now writing this article.
