- 26 miles
Entry includes hot drinks at the start, food and drinks at checkpoints, a meal at the finish and a certificate for finishers. Entry fees differ for members and non members. Refunds, less an administrative charge, are possible up to 21 September 2026. The route description and GPX file for both routes will be available at least one week before the event.
Car parking is available in a nearby public car park with a pay and display charge currently £5 per day; there is no street parking in Walberswick. Participants should be prepared for autumn weather and carry minimum kit such as waterproof jacket and trousers, hat, an extra warm layer, suitable footwear, a map or downloaded route, the route description, an own mug and any personal food or drink.
Vegetarian food will be available and a small amount of vegan food is provided; participants with specific dietary requirements or allergies should plan accordingly.
