For all ages, fitness & experience levels. For teams of friends or colleagues & for individuals; for a charity of your choice, OR just self fund. You’ll get lots of food & drink, covered rest stops, medics & massage, camaraderie & friendship, and an unforgettable weekend!
With 24 events; 25 km & 50 km choices; 100 km continuous challenges – or in ‘daylight’ over 2 days; a few trail marathons; a dozen 10K taster events, and 3 brand new events – there’s an Ultra Challenge® for everyone! Plus an ULTRA MARCH® category for determined walkers – and TRAILBLAZERZ® for ambitious runners.
WALK – hike or trek! It’s sociable! Enjoy wonderful scenery, camaraderie, and event hospitality at your pace. No need to rush.
JOG – many do and may not class themselves a ‘full-on’ runner. Maybe walk bits, mix it up, see how it all goes!
RUN – at the front on a clear course. Maybe ‘stepping up’ the distance, or out for a trail run with fantastic support & no cut-off time pressure!
——————————–
Ultra Challenges are for ALL. On our 50km & 100km ‘Ultra’ distances, over 50% are female, and – there’s a wide range of ages, experience & fitness levels.
ULTRA MARCH® a popular category for walkers with a ‘goal’ of 100km in <24 hrs (or 50km <12 hrs) with a bunch of like-minded ‘marchers’!
ULTRA TRAILBLAZERZ® an entry category for quicker, ambitious runners – with an eye on the clock over 100km or 50km.
TEAMS – of friends or family can motivate each other, whilst sharing an unforgettable adventure – with a great reason to celebrate! Teams can be of any size, and can do the same or a mix of distances & funding options.
INDIVIDUALS – Solo Challengers will feel 100% welcome & safe, and meet new friends enroute. There’s optional ‘Solo Challenger Start Time’ slots to meet up with others if you want.
100 KM as a continuous Ultra Challenge is tough, but absolutely achievable with good preparation and our support – with rest stops, plenty of food & drink, and expert welfare & safety teams.

Trail Marathons (42 km) – classic distance choice for many – with 5 available.
