Winner - Ring O' Fire 2022 - Rob Fox

Congratulations to all of you!


A huge thank you to all runners for taking up the challenge of running the 135 miles. Each runner can be proud of their achievement. It's an experience with plenty of points to take away and learn from.

Beauty aside, the extreme distance and variable terrain has sealed the race's reputation as one of the most challenging ultra marathons in the British Isles.

An interesting race this year with the overall winner Rob Fox having never previously run an ultra marathon until the end of Day1 and then another on Day2 and another on Day 3!

Great to see Suzy Whatmough take the overall win on Day 3!

Of 104 registered runners to attempt the Ring O'Fire in 2022, 94 runners started and 58 of those finished, giving a 58% success rate.

The course record still stands with Joe Baker at a cumulative time of 20 hours and 26 mins in 2021.
