Walk, jog or run a 50km Ultra Challenge or take on the 25km Half Challenge, and make it an active Easter.

From our Windsor Racecourse base camp, 1,500 adventurers will head out on looped routes through the Great Park with fantastic views of Windsor Castle, on to Runnymede and along the Thames Path, taking in the fresh air and some wonderful countryside landscapes.

You’ll receive full support all the way, plus a few Easter surprises and a celebratory barbecue meal. It’s a great way to kick off the 2025 Ultra Challenge season and get in shape for summer while supporting families affected by dementia.

As you cross the finish line, you’ll receive a glass of fizz, a finisher’s t-shirt and a medal to commemorate your achievement. Your entry includes food, drinks and snacks at regular rest stops along a fully signed route, plus support from medics, marshals and massage therapists.

You may have to dig deep at times – but you’ll meet new friends along the way, and the journey will be unforgettable!

As Dementia UK is an official partner of this event, you will receive a 50% discount on the ‘full sponsorship’ registration fee when signing up to support families affected by dementia.
