Lake District Challenge

Walk, Jog, or Run the Lake District Challenge and take on England’s finest countryside at your pace. Choose your distance – the
full challenge Kendal loop, or a half challenge, quarter challenge, 10km or our new Lake District Marathon distance. Test yourself
on a fantastic Ultra Challenge – suitable for all experience levels – and you’ll get the best support & hospitality all the way.
Our Challenge Base Camp is in Kendal. From there it’s a full challenge anticlockwise loop taking in a couple of tough hills to
Ambleside, a half way point by Lake Windermere, forests, and nature reserves – with some stunning views en route – before a
huge welcome and celebration back at Base Camp after a momentous journey. Push yourself further in the stunning Lake
District!
Your entry includes free food and drink at regular rest stops, plus support including medics, marshals and massage. As you cross
