Event overview

Testway Ultra takes place on 4 April 2026 at Linkenholt Activity Center, Linkenholt, Andover, Hampshire (SP11 0EA). The organiser is And-Over Trail Events. There are two race options:

  • 50 mile ultra

Entry is open to people aged 18 and over. Entry fees listed are £80 for the 50 mile option and £70 for the 40 mile option; a coach shuttle option is available for an additional £10.

Route and support

The route follows the Testway, a long-established footpath running the length of Hampshire from the Northern Hampshire/Berkshire border to the town of Totton in Southampton. The route will be fully signed; the final section is marked with high-visibility signage for late runners. There is a 14 hour cutoff for the event.

Aid stations are provided about every 10 miles and offer a mix of sweet and savory snacks plus water, juice and cola. Marshals are placed at major road crossings, and a medical and safety team will be on the route. Finishers receive medals; prizes are given to first, second and third male and female finishers.

Transport and withdrawal

A shuttle coach is offered from the finish in Totton back to Linkenholt for an extra charge. Runners who withdraw during the race will be transported to the finish and may use the shuttle if they have selected it. There are no deferrals after four weeks from the event.
