The HOTH - Hell On The Humber Night Endurance Race 2024, held at the iconic Humber Bridge in Hessle, is an extraordinary endurance event that attracts participants from across the UK and Europe. Taking place on the third weekend in August, also known as HOTH weekend, this race series offers a unique challenge for runners and walkers alike. Participants will push themselves through the night, running, walking, shuffling, and crawling over the Humber Bridge for 6, 12, or 24 hours. The goal is to complete as many 4-mile laps as possible during this time. While there is no upper mileage limit, some remarkable course records have been set over the years. It is required that participants complete a minimum of one 4-mile lap every 3 hours, ensuring a true test of endurance.

The HOTH is a predominantly nighttime race, promising participants a wide range of weather conditions as they traverse the bridge in the dark. The breathtaking sunrise that marks the end of the race is an unforgettable sight after a night of pushing physical and mental limits. To add to the camaraderie, pizza is even ordered at midnight for those who want to join in. Participants are encouraged to bring their tents, all necessary equipment, and a sense of humor, as this race is designed to challenge and engage the mind.

For those who have been eagerly awaiting its return, the 24-hour race is back on the schedule for 2024. This highly anticipated event is sure to test even the most experienced endurance athletes. Additionally, a limited number of daytime places are available for the 6-hour race, providing an opportunity for those who prefer to run during daylight hours.

The popular 12-hour Ouzo race, where participants carry a 20kg pack throughout the event, is also making a comeback in 2024. This challenge, enjoyed by a dedicated group of individuals in 2022, presents a unique and demanding experience for those seeking an additional level of difficulty.

The HOTH Event Series welcomes not only ultra runners but also walkers who are looking to take on this exceptional challenge. While participants must be 18 or over for the 12 and 24-hour races and 16 or over for the 6-hour race (with parental consent required for under 18s), no prior ultra running experience is necessary. The focus is on personal challenge, inclusion, and support, with egos left at the starting line. Every finisher receives a coveted finisher's shirt and a stunning finisher's medal as a testament to their accomplishment.

Charity runners are encouraged to participate and raise funds for worthy causes. While free races are not available for charity runners, support is provided where possible. The Ellie Penrose Fund, a charity established by the family of Ellie Penrose, a young HOTH competitor and crew member, aims to support young people in their sports endeavors. Limited charity places are available, and interested individuals should contact the race director for more information.

Please note that event dates are provisional and may be subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances or urgent engineering works on the bridge. In such cases, the event will be rescheduled to the next available date within the same year, and all entries will be transferred accordingly. Additionally, global, national, or local events may impact the race's ability to proceed as planned. In these situations, entries will be deferred to a future race or offered as virtual race entries.

The HOTH - Hell On The Humber Night Endurance Race 2024 promises to be an unforgettable experience for participants, pushing them to their limits both physically and mentally. With its stunning location, challenging route, and inclusive atmosphere, this event is a must for any endurance athlete looking to test themselves in a unique and unforgettable setting.
