Race To The King

Race to the King is an ultramarathon event held at West Dean Gardens, featuring challenging trail runs along the South Downs Way and Monarch’s Way. Participants can choose from three distances: the Coastal 50k, a flat and scenic loop around Chichester Harbour with 500m elevation; the Castle 50k, a more demanding 52.7km route with 1040m elevation passing Arundel Castle; or the full 100k challenge combining both loops for a total of 102.7km and 1550m elevation. The course offers spectacular views, well-stocked aid stations, and a walker-friendly atmosphere, making it suitable for both seasoned ultrarunners and first-timers.

Entry fees start at £30, with charity fundraising options available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
