Marlborough Downs Challenge

The Marlborough Downs Challenge is an exciting trail running event featuring two distances: a 33-mile race and a 20-mile race, both set in the stunning Wiltshire countryside. Participants will navigate scenic routes that include the Wansdyke Path, Tan Hill Way, and the White Horse Trail, with significant elevation gains exceeding 3000 feet for the longer course. The event showcases breathtaking views and historical landmarks, such as the Avebury stone circle.

Runners are encouraged to carry navigation tools, as the courses are primarily unmarked. Finishers receive unique hand-thrown mugs, adding a special touch to this challenging outdoor experience. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
