Event details
The Greensand Way Ultra Run takes place on Saturday 2 May 2026, meeting at West Hanger, Staple Lane, Guildford, Surrey. The event distance is 30 miles. Entry cost is £45 per person.

The course passes Box Hill, goes south to join the Greensand Way, then heads west and includes Leith Hill, Pitch Hill and Holmbury Hill, before returning north toward Shere and back to the start. The guide will manage navigation and offer coaching and advice during the run.
Practical information
A full kit list will be provided to participants. There is a car park at the start/finish location. The start point is a short run or taxi ride from a nearby train station. At the end of the run participants may receive an alcohol-free beer, subject to availability. Terms and conditions apply. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
