London 2 Brighton Ultra Challenge
The London 2 Brighton Ultra Challenge is a multi distance trail event on 23 and 24 May 2026 that follows routes from Richmond upon Thames to Brighton Racecourse. The course crosses the North Downs and South Downs and passes through Surrey and Sussex countryside, with Turners Hill used as a halfway point on some options. Participants may take the route continuously as a full 100 km challenge or choose shorter sections run over one or two days. Camping packages are available at a halfway campsite for multi day options.
The event provides staffed rest stops approximately every 12.5 km with major marquees about every 25 km. Catering includes snacks at more frequent stops and meals at larger stops, with dietary options and lighter choices for runners. Medical provision includes doctors, paramedics, first aiders, podiatrists, massage teams, and mobile emergency medical teams. The route is fully signed with tens of directional markers and GPS tracking via an event app; progress is logged at rest stops by the event timing system.
Entry categories include walking, jogging, or running, with specific options such as Ultra March for timed walkers, Trailblazerz for faster competitive runners, and a Solo Challenger start slot. Teams, individual entries, charity fundraising options, young person discounts, shuttle transfers and finishers items such as a medal and t shirt are part of the event services.
