Charm Bracelet 100

Dufton, United Kingdom • 2-4 Oct 2026

Charm Bracelet 50 and 104 Mile Ultras

The event offers two long distance trail races on national trails in northern England. Distances:

  • 104 miles with approximately 6563 ft of elevation.
  • 50 miles with approximately 1079 ft of elevation.

The longer route starts in Dufton and follows the Pennine Way, then the Teesdale Way, before joining the King Charles III Coastal Path and the Cleveland Way for the final six miles into Skinningrove. The shorter route follows the second half of the same course, starting in Croft-on-Tees and finishing in Skinningrove.

Both races are fully tracked and include multiple checkpoints with water, snacks and selected hot or cold meals. The 104 mile course has ten checkpoints and the 50 mile course has five checkpoints; pie and mash will be served at the finish for all dietary requirements. Bag drop facilities are available at several checkpoints. First aid and event insurance are provided on the day. Race permit ARC/25/0036 applies.

Support rules and entry requirements are specified: support runners may join the 104 mile entrants after the second checkpoint (about 20 miles), and may accompany 50 mile entrants from the start. Relay teams may include two to four runners and must arrange their own changeover transport. Unsupported entrants must provide proof of a previous 50 mile finish. The minimum age to enter is 20. Cut off times are 40 hours for the 104 mile course and 20 hours for the 50 mile course.

Entry fees include a finishers medal, t-shirt, food, water, a GPS tracker for live tracking, and checkpoint services. The organisers have pledged to avoid single use plastics and offer an option to plant a tree instead of a finishers t-shirt. Transfer, deferral and refund policies are published; entries may be transferred up to four weeks before the event, one deferral is allowed, and refunds are not offered.
