Offa’s Dyke Path is a 177 mile (285 Km) long walking trail. It is named after King Offa, who ordered the dyke to be constructed in the 8th century, probably to divide his Kingdom of Mercia from rival kingdoms in what is now Wales.
The trail links Sedbury Cliffs near Chepstow, on the banks of the Severn estuary, with the coastal town of Prestatyn on the shores of the Irish sea. It passes through eight counties and crosses the border between England and Wales over 20 times. The Trail explores the tranquil Marches (as the border region is known) and passes through the Brecon Beacons National Park on the spectacular Hatterrall Ridge. In addition it links three Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty – the Wye Valley, the Shropshire Hills and the Clwydian Range / Dee Valley.

The time to beat for supported FKT is Jack Scott in the King Offa's Dyke Race in September 2019. He finished in 49 hours 43 minutes and 50 seconds. Here is a link to the results

Any ideas on the fkt for female supported/unsupported?
Sarah Perry set a new female course record in the King Offa's Dyke race last year of 60 hrs 35 mins. I'm guessing as nothing else is published, that would be the fkt supported if that's any help.
