Event overview
The South Kyme Three River Challenge is a mixed riverbank and road run through the Lincolnshire Fens on 1 November 2026. The route follows the rivers Slea, Skirth and Witham and covers 15 mile (14.7 ml / 23.65 km). The event combines trail and road surfaces and includes areas of rough ground. Walkers or slow runners who expect to take over 3 hours 30 minutes will start earlier and are given a map of the course.
Logistics, facilities and safety
The assembly area is Coronation Hall, South Kyme (LN4 4AD). Free parking is available on a grassed area behind the hall and roadside parking is possible throughout the village. The route is marshalled at decision points and where needed to reduce traffic risk. Drinks stations are located at approximately 7 km, 13 km and 17 km. Results will be displayed electronically in the assembly area and online once ratified.
Bags may be left in the Coronation Hall under supervision; toilets and limited changing facilities are available. After the event participants receive hot soup, tea and coffee, cake and a medal. Dogs may accompany participants but must be kept under close control. Participants enter and take part at their own risk and must be medically fit to do so; organisers provide immediate medical assistance in the assembly area. Entry options list Adult Runner £17.50 and Adult Walker £17.50, with on-the-day entry available at a higher fee. A route map is available on Plotaroute.
