Snowdrop Ultra 55 Hour Race - 100mi Split
Calculated from 161 km alone — the organiser has not published an elevation profile. Read 8.1 as a floor, not a verdict.
What the course asks
DUV results for the 2025 edition (55h) — ranked runners only. Starters are not published, so the field was at least this big and no finish rate can be given.
Typical conditions, December
Regional 2001-2020 average for December — NASA POWER, grid elevation 25 m. Not a forecast.
