Experience the Return of the G2E Ultra: Glasgow to Edinburgh!
Get ready for the highly anticipated return of the G2E Ultra in 2026! This Scottish ultra kicks off in Glasgow, beside the ultra-modern Riverside Museum and the magnificent Victorian Tall Ship, Glenlee.
A Fast, Flat Course with Unrivalled Support
The G2E Ultra offers a well-marked, flat, and fast-paced course, making it an ideal opportunity to achieve a personal best over the distance. You'll benefit from live online GPS tracking via GB Race Tracker, allowing friends and family to follow your progress every step of the way. Expect fantastic support from the GB Ultras team at numerous checkpoints, featuring new and improved venues along the journey.
This isn't just a race; it's a chance to immerse yourself in Scottish history and culture.

Consider extending your trip to explore two of Scotland's greatest cities, Glasgow and Edinburgh, before and after the event.
