About the Event

Conquer a World Heritage coastline over an epic weekend at the Jurassic Coast Challenge, a classic three-day endurance event along the Dorset Coast Path from Friday, 27 to Sunday, 29 March 2026. This renowned challenge dares you to run, walk, or crawl a marathon a day (approx. 42km) for three consecutive days, traversing the entire, breathtaking Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site from Charmouth to Studland. Each day presents a unique stage with relentless climbs and descents, culminating in the famous circumnavigation of the Isle of Portland and the iconic finish at Lulworth Cove. Organized by Epic Endurance Events, the fully-supported adventure includes GPS tracking, daily transport, well-stocked checkpoints, hot meals, and a dedicated event HQ, allowing you to focus purely on the monumental task. Welcoming walkers, runners, and teams of all abilities with staggered start times, it's the ultimate achievable test of resilience against a backdrop of England's most dramatic and ancient landscapes. Entries are now open for this unforgettable journey where every step is a page from 185 million years of Earth's history.
