The Midnight Mountain Marathon on 7 June 2025 is set In the majestic mountains of the Bannau Brycheiniog in Brecon, Wales.

This unique evening Marathon comes with a twist - runners don't start until 5:30pm and have only until the Midnight cut off to complete the course. Runners will be challenged to conquer the stunning Bannau Brychiniog as they run through forests, over streams, past waterfalls, and up mountains. The course includes part of the 'Fan Dance', a famous route used in British Special Forces selection, featuring an ascent of Pen y Fan standing at 2,907ft / 886m.

There is also a Half Marathon distance starting after the Marathon on a course with less elevation and incorporating some of the best forest trail running in the Beacons.

For an added challenge - there is a Bergen option for both distances where competitors carry a weighted Bergen pack (45lb) while running the distance.
