London 2 Brighton Ultra Challenge 2027

The challenge

Around 2000 adventurers will take on the capital to coast trails and test their grit and determination. You can join and take it on at your pace as a walk, jog, or run while fundraising for Alzheimer's Society! Richmond-Upon Thames is the start, and it’s over the North Downs with wonderful Surrey and Sussex countryside to halfway at Turners Hill. 

The full 100km route heads over the South Downs before the welcome sight of the Brighton coastline comes into view. Sign up as an individual or as a team; you’ll get full support all the way, plenty of food and drink, optional camping and transfers, a special medal, t-shirt and celebration finish. With half, quarter, marathon and 25km options also available – there’s bank holiday weekend challenge here for everyone! Push yourself further in 2027, take on an Ultra Challenge – the UK’s number one series of treks and trail challenges.
