Maidenhead to Henley 50k circular ultra marathon

I've run this route a few times and it's a good mix of all the experiences a runner is likely to face. It's got road, trails and gravel. There are hills, flats, fields, streets, bridges, gates and a few ice cream stops. It's easy to navigate, can be run in either direction and you're never all that far from an Uber should things go awry or if you fancy an early finish.
