The Foxton Hound Ultra offers 50K and 100K trail races starting and finishing at Winwick Hall in Northamptonshire. Following sections of the Harborough Round, the routes pass through countryside, farmland and woodland across Northamptonshire and Leicestershire, taking in historic landmarks including Foxton Locks and the Naseby battlefield.

Both routes feature varied trails, rural paths and challenging hills with rewarding descents, providing a test for experienced ultra runners and those stepping up to longer distances. The courses incorporate established long distance footpaths and the dark Kelmarsh Tunnel, which requires a head torch. Routes are marked, with GPX files and navigation instructions provided to help runners find their way.

Regular checkpoints offer food and hydration, with first aid support and GPS tracking throughout the event. Free guided route reconnaissance runs help participants prepare, while generous cut off times and finisher medals contribute to a well supported endurance challenge.
