The Classic Quarter 2027 is a 44 mile ultra marathon along the south Cornish coast, running from Lizard Point to Lands End via the South West Coast Path. The event takes place on 5 June 2027 and is staged in Cornwall, England.

The route follows coastal trails and includes numerous steep climbs and descents with an overall ascent of 5,531 ft. Terrain is described as severe and includes rock, mud and trail underfoot. Weather along the Atlantic coast can be changeable, so participants should anticipate variable conditions.
