Overview
The Spitzen Ultra is a 46-kilometer fixed-distance road race on a loop shorter than 5 kilometers, taking place in Bramsche, Germany, on October 24, 2026. This race is organised by Andreas Pluta and features an entry fee that is a donation. With only 9 finishers in its 2025 debut, the field is smaller than 85% of 50k races.
The course involves 11 loops along the Zweigkanal and Mittellandkanal, with hardly any elevation gain. Runners have 8 hours to complete the course, which translates to a cutoff pace of 10.4 minutes per kilometer. This time limit is tighter than 73% of 50k cut-offs.
