What is an Ultra Challenge?

There are 20 fantastic events to choose from in the UK’s number one series of treks and trail runs. Whether heading out in stunning coastal scenery, along a historic river towpath, or along trails in England’s wonderful countryside – your Ultra Challenge will be an unforgettable journey. You can choose to walk, jog or run at your own pace as part of Team Crisis and every step you take will help make a difference.

You can choose from 10km, 25km, 50km, 75km and even full 100km challenges. You’ll also get full support all the way, including fundraising support in the lead up to event day, plenty of food and drink, medics and massage, camaraderie, a medal and T shirt – and an amazing sense of achievement.

There are three different fundraising options for these events:

1) Full charity sponsorship option - pay a small registration fee and then fundraise with a set target for Crisis (we'll cover the rest of your place cost).

2) Mixed funding option - pay for half your place cost and fundraise with a smaller target for Crisis (we'll pay half of your place cost).

3) Self-funding option - pay for your place and then fundraise whatever you can for Crisis with no set target.

Exact fundraising targets and registration fees depend on the distance chosen and can be found by following the link for each event.
