With three distances to choose from Half Marathon, 15k, and 10k this event welcomes walkers and hikers of all abilities, from those seeking their first challenge to experienced adventurers looking for a scenic, early-season outing.

As you begin your walk, you'll be immersed in the lush greenery of the South Downs, following trails that wind through peaceful ancient woodland.
