Whether you’re taking on a 50km challenge or tackling the full 100km route, your charity of choice will part-fund your place and will provide you with all the support and materials to help you reach your target.

You’ll benefit from reduced entry fees starting at just £45 – and maybe some snazzy new kit to rock on race day!
