Race to Remember

On November 7, 2026, runners from around the world will converge on Portsmouth, Hampshire for the Race to Remember. This annual event offers two challenging courses: an ultra marathon of 76 kilometers and a more manageable yet still demanding 36 kilometer route. Both options are designed not only to test one's physical limits but also to raise awareness and funds for veterans' mental health initiatives.
Set against the historic backdrop of Portsmouth, participants will navigate through scenic coastal paths and bustling city streets, immersing themselves in the rich maritime heritage that defines this part of Hampshire. The race courses wind through areas significant to both military history and contemporary veteran support networks, creating a poignant connection between physical challenge and meaningful cause.
As runners push their bodies to the limit over rugged terrain and along picturesque waterfronts, they join forces with thousands who share a commitment to improving mental health services for those who have served. The Race to Remember is more than just an athletic endeavor; it's a powerful demonstration of community support and solidarity with veterans facing unique challenges.
Registration opens soon, offering runners the opportunity to be part of this inspiring event that combines personal achievement with profound social impact.
