About this event

The Thames Challenge takes runners on a remarkable journey along England's longest river path, from the Cotswolds source to the Thames Barrier in Greenwich. This multi-stage ultra covers 296km of continuously changing landscape — quiet countryside meadows, historic market towns, and London's iconic riverside. Each stage works as both an individual race and part of the greater adventure, with the route revealing centuries of English history along the way. Finishers receive a distinctive medal that connects with others to form a jigsaw map of the entire trail, plus a commemorative event item. This is one for experienced ultra runners looking for a unique multi-day challenge through the heart of England.
