Hi Tim, it looks like the Ultra is doing a different route than last year? It looks like 1 loop instead of a 1 1/2 loop like last year. Can you confirm this?

That is correct! Most of the route is the same, however, due to the fact that the race is back to the 1 day format, the routes have been adapted slightly to accommodate the other distances and ensure that there isn't any overlapping.

In my opinion, the new routes are even better then last year!
