Kingfisher Challenge

Coventry, United Kingdom • 30 Sep 2025

Kingfisher Challenge takes place at Coombe Abbey Park in Coventry, CV3 2AB, a scenic mix of mature woodland, waterways and open grassland ideal for trail running. The event uses a 3.3-mile lap on mostly stone paths, enabling runners to tailor distance within a 6-hour window—from a single 5k to 50+ miles, with marathon distance requiring eight laps. The course is relatively flat with tree cover and occasional meadow sections. The format supports all abilities, including walking, with options like canicross and a sociable finish with medals, flapjacks, and beer. It supports Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity and offers on-demand and eco-friendly alternatives. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
