The Big Pilgrimage

The Big Pilgrimage is an exciting mixed terrain running event featuring a 15-mile course and a marathon, set to take place along the historic 'Old Way' Pilgrim Trail from Southampton to Canterbury. Participants will enjoy scenic views as they traverse beautiful coastal and countryside paths, with notable landmarks like Netley Abbey and Titchfield Abbey along the route. A unique highlight includes a river crossing where runners can enjoy complimentary sweets before continuing their journey.
