Saints & Smugglers 100 Mile Challenge Part Deux

Saints & Smugglers 100 Mile Challenge Part Deux takes place over 26 and 27 September 2026 in Looe, Cornwall. The route starts and finishes at Tencreek Holiday Park and offers a 39-hour completion window for the full course.

The event covers 100 Miles of Cornish terrain with approximately 18,000 ft of elevation gain. The route crosses the county twice and follows both the north and south Cornish coastlines. Two staffed ferry crossings are included at Rock and Fowey: ferries operate during normal service times, and outside those times they will run as private hires with a maximum turnaround of 15 minutes.

This is a fully supported, self-navigation event with live GPS tracking and seven feed stations or checkpoints with cut-off times. Runners must carry a mandatory kit list. The event is timed using ST App Service; there will be no chip timing.

Entry fees are tiered during the registration period, with earlier rates available and subsequent increases on specified dates. Registration closes on 1 August 2026 at 12:00. The event is organised by Purple Gecko Events and is based at Tencreek Holiday Park, Looe PL13 2JR, Cornwall, Great Britain. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
