2,000 adventurers of all experience levels & ages will take on a classic capital to coast route, testing their grit over the Bank Holiday weekend. Most will Walk, but many will Jog or Run the full 100km, and with half & quarter distance options there’s a challenge for everyone.
Back for the bank holiday weekend, the iconic London 2 Brighton Challenge is a staple in the Ultra Challenge calendar–the UK’s number 1 mass participation endurance event series. Walk, jog or run capital to coast, as an individual or as a team, with full support and hospitality all the way so you can push yourself further! It’s a Richmond start by the Thames, and a60% off-road route which takes in the North Downs, wonderful Surrey & Sussex countryside, a steep climb over the South Downs with the coastline then coming into view–and a welcome finish line at Brighton Racecourse. With the full 100km Challenge, a 2 day daylight option with camping at half way, and half & quarter distance options also–there’s a challenge for everyone!
Your entry includes a range of free food &drink at regular rest stops, and support from medics, marshals and massage teams. As you cross the finish line, you’ll get a glass of fizz, t-shirt, and a special medal to celebrate your achievement.
