This year’s Dragon’s Back Race had to pivot quite drastically as we lost our finish venue and had to quickly come up with an alternative . This blog details the quick decision-making and processes we underwent as we searched for a solution.

Ourea Events are proud to announce their new accreditation with the Good Business Charter.

Ourea Events will organise the popular Kendal Mountain Festival 10k Trail Run on a not-for-profit basis for Kendal Mountain Rescue Team and in partnership with adidas TERREX.

Join us on 26-27th March 2022 for an expedition race training weekend at Rydal Hall near Ambleside, the Lake District. Hear from past participants of the Montane Dragon’s Back Race® and the Cape Wrath Ultra® and pick up plenty of invaluable knowledge from a range of running experts who will be delivering sessions on subjects such as nutrition, navigation, and training.

With immediate effect, Ourea Events have taken on the responsibility for the organisation and management of the event including the delivery of the 2022 edition. Shane Ohly, Managing Director of Ourea Events explains

Here at Ourea Events we are aware that we hold a position of leadership in regard to event planning good practice thanks to our high-profile events. This means it is incumbent upon us to live and breathe the highest standards in terms of safety management systems and processes. We are therefore delighted to announce two important developments concerning our contribution to safety management at adventure sport events; the new Purple Guide Chapter and the Adventure Sport Events Conference.

Today, we are proud to share with you our new Equality, Diversity and Inclusion policy.

We are delighted to be able to share with you today our 2020 Environmental Report.
