Springtide 50k
The Springtide 50k is a single-loop ultra run that starts and finishes in Arundel, West Sussex, with the official location at Arundel Football Club. The route runs through the South Downs National Park and passes Houghton Forest, Eartham Wood, Findon, Angmering Park and Wepham Woods, finishing along the River Arun back toward Arundel Castle.
The course is almost entirely on trail with short sections of road. The route is waymarked and uses live GPS tracking and chip timing. There are four staffed aid stations on course. Total ascent is just over 3,000 ft and the organisers describe the route as runnable and largely non-technical.
Entry is open on a first-come, first-served basis; a waitlist operates once places are full and entries close two weeks before the race or when limits are reached. Minimum age to enter is 20 and no qualifier is required. The published entry fee includes a mandatory GPS tracker. The event holds an ARC permit (ARC/26/0230) and is a UTMB Index race worth 2 ITRA points.
The event package includes a bespoke finisher medal, winner trophies, downloadable photos, prizes for vet categories, event insurance and medical cover. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
