The event is organized by Boghopper Races Ltd and is licensed by the Association of Running Clubs under UK Athletics rules (permit ARC/26/0411).

- Full Trail Marathon, starts at Walberswick Village Hall, 8 hour time limit

The entry fee includes a unique medal, food and drink at checkpoints, GPS tracking, first aid cover, a light meal and hot drinks at the finish, and prizes for first, second and third place in Female and Male/Open categories.
