Windsor 50 Ultra Challenge 

17 April 2027                                                        

Participants gather beneath a start arch at the Easter 50 Ultra Challenge.

Get outdoors and onto the trails after the Easter holidays with stunning 50km, 25km, and 10km routes around the historic town of Windsor. From basecamp at Windsor Racecourse, join 2,000 Challengers heading out on trails through the Great Park, past the Castle, on towards Runnymede, and back along the Thames Path, before heading back to basecamp for your finish line. This flat & fast route is popular for first time Challengers looking to take on their first ultra, or people trying to go for a quicker time. Join as an individual or as a team and experience full support every step of the way with regular rest stops packed with food & drink, hot meals, fully marked routes, massage & medical care, marshals on course and walking the route with you, and of course an unbeatable community.

   Walk, Jog, or Run    50km, 25km, 10km Options     Food & Drink    Medal & T Shirt
