The Peddars Way Ultra Marathon

Knettishall, United Kingdom • 1 Feb 2026

The Peddars Way Ultra Marathon is a 48-mile ultramarathon held in Suffolk and Norfolk, England. The route follows the historic Peddars Way, an ancient pre-Roman trading path and Roman road, starting at Knettishall Heath Nature Reserve and finishing at Holme-next-the-Sea on the Norfolk Coast. The course features a mix of footpaths, bridleways, rural lanes, and quiet country roads, mostly flat and well-marked with National Trail signage.

The event offers a generous 12-hour cutoff, making it accessible for beginner ultra runners. There are four checkpoints with food and drink, and GPS tracking allows supporters to follow runners.
