At registration, you will need to bring with you one form of photo identification to show at registration. This can be a photo-card driving licence, passport or any other identification card or membership card as long as it has your photo on it. We have to be strict on this one – no ID, no start. Also, bring along your run pack (rucksack/bumbag etc) as there will be a kit check.
You will receive:
Race Number
If you have any special
medical condition which might
require attention, please mark a red
cross in the top right corner on the
front of your race number.
• Your race number must be securely
fastened with safety pins on all four
corners & be clearly visible at all times.
• You will not be allowed into the
runner’s only areas or to start unless
you are wearing your number & carrying the required kit.
• At the finish, positions and times will
not be given to numberless runners
and they will not be permitted to
cross the finish line.
• Numbers must be worn as issued
and NOT be cut, folded, otherwise
Concealed or mutilated in any way, any of these and you won't be getting a finish time.
There does seem to be some confusion over this last point, we did think it was simple but: If you alter the race number in any way, by folding, cutting or your number is not clearly visible at ALL times etc, that is you telling us that you are no longer wanting to be a part of the event.
Baggage
Baggage Tag
•All competitors in the Ultra, receive a baggage tag at registration.

After calling the emergency services, please notify our Event HQ – number below.
Please call this if you require any assistance during the event.

Start and Registration
The venue, 25th Salendine Nook Scout Group Scout Hut - Gilead Rd, Huddersfield HD3 4XH
The Route
The route is NOT well marked. The signs we use are A6 size - black arrows on a yellow background an example will be available to see at registration.
As a word of caution out of the two lost runner incidents, we have had in the past 4 years one was due to people following a person who had pulled out of the race and was been picked up by his mum. The second, a chap was going off route to a supermarket, he managed to draw quite a following!
Run your own race.
Route Specific Notes
You must follow the route as marked/specified.
You MUST visit all the aid stations along the route as these also act as checkpoints for your safety.
Take care crossing roads you will cross the main Manchester to Huddersfield road twice on each lap of the route.
Please respect the local residents in the villages and towns along the route by keeping any noise to a minimum – especially where you will be passing through these places at night.
Cut Offs
We have decided to be a little more generous with the cut-offs this year, to hopefully allow everyone to complete the route without any added stress.
Cut off times - the physical cut off times are as follows after these times for your safety, you will be removed from the course and returned to race HQ
WRU 30 - 7.5 Hours (15:30 Saturday 5th)
WRU 60 - 15 Hours (23:00 Saturday 5th)
WRU 100 - 30 Hours (14:00 Saturday 5th)
WRU 150 - 40 Hours (24:00 Saturday 5th 'Midnight')
Retirements

Please do not jump on a bus, get a lift, go home or back to your hotel before doing this. If we do not hear from you at the end of the event, we will have no choice but to call out the emergency services to look for you, this cost will be passed on to you.
Photography
We will have our event photographer’s popping up along the route taking pictures of you all. The event photographs will be available on our Facebook page shortly after the event, and on our online portfolio shortly after, all our photos are free to download and use.
Spectators
Your supporters are very welcome to come along to cheer you on, but we do not allow them in or at the feed stations, these are competitor only areas. We would also ask that spectators do not park on the roads near the feed stations as this will result in a lot of congestion and may impede runners and put them in danger from other road users (whose vision may be blocked). Consider this, an event of this size struggles to have a good amount of support staff so don't be surprised if we ask you, supporters, to assist others and not just you!
Supporters, Crew and Pacers
Yes, you are allowed them but...
Over the years it has become more and more of an issue the amount of crew and supporters runners bring with them, we are more than happy that you do this but, under NO circumstances are they allowed into the event HQ or any of the CP's unless they are also supporting the whole of the event.
If you have pacers or similar, please do not expect that they will be able to use aid stations or HQ, if they wish to do so then they can just like everyone else, enter the event, it's hardly fair to have someone using for free what the event provides while others have had pay is it!?
If a member of your crew for any reason is found within HQ or at a CP then sorry but you will be removed from the event.
This may sound or seem a little harsh but when we have limited space and 200 other participants to look after, it is hardly fair that space, seating and other facilities are taken up by people who are not participating in or even supporting the whole event.
(as an example we had runners finishing with nowhere to sit, when we looked into this we discovered 1 runner with 3 supporters!)
Post-race Meal
We have arranged hot food for all competitors at the finish. A voucher will be given to each finisher for a well-earned meal and plenty of tea & coffee. Food will be available for all finishers until 30 minutes after the cut-off or at the WRU 150 mile
Results
The final result list will appear on the website shortly after the event has finished. www.whiteroseultra.co.uk, these will be live on the website as everyone crosses the finish line.
Prize-giving
This will take place soon after the first three men & the first three ladies have finished in each distance, no sooner, if you aren't there on the podium you won't be getting your prize!
Look forward to seeing you on the start line.

It is your responsibility to visit the website if you want them in a hurry!
Can under 18-year olds enter your events?
We are sorry but due to Child Protection and Insurance restrictions, we do not currently allow any under 18's to enter this event.
But keep in touch or drop us an email as this might be changing.
Do I need to bring any forms with me?
Yes, a photo ID will be required; Driving licence, student id passport etc, at registration you will need to provide your name and address details & an emergency contact.
Are there any water/feed station?
There are checkpoints and water stations every few miles on the White Rose Ultra course. some of the checkpoint's drink stations are sometimes manned by volunteers (many from local running clubs and the local community) see the route section of this website for rough guidance on all CPO locations.
Where do I park?
The venue has limited parking and is for event staff only.
Just remember some of the local residents could be manning some of the checkpoints.
In 2019 & 2021 there was some ridiculous parking on pavements, across gateways double-parked etc, this will not be tolerated, at registration, you will be required to provide your vehicle registration number and face disqualification from the event!
When and where is the prize giving?
The prize-giving will be in the event centre as you pass through the finish line, you must collect in person we will NOT post out!.
