About the Event

Step into history on the ancient Clarendon Marathon, Sunday, October 4, 2026, a quintessentially English off-road adventure tracing the historic Clarendon Way from Salisbury to Winchester. With over 90% of its 26.2-mile route on country tracks and woodland paths, this point-to-point journey offers a truly picturesque and challenging escape, following trails once trodden by medieval kings and queens. The inclusive event spirit extends to a Half Marathon, a 5-mile Mini option, and a relay, ensuring runners of all ambitions can share the trail and the celebratory finish at King's School, Winchester. Organized by the Rotary Clubs of Winchester and Salisbury, this community-driven event is a charity fundraiser at heart, where your effort directly supports a wide array of local and national good causes. Your all-inclusive entry rewards you with a finisher's t-shirt, a medal, free event photos, and the deep satisfaction of completing one of the UK's most authentic and scenic trail marathons. More than a race, it's a passage through time, a test of endurance against rolling hills, and a joyful gathering steeped in camaraderie and shared purpose. Secure your Early Bird entry for an autumn Sunday where every mile tells a story, and your finish becomes part of the event's cherished legacy.
