Join #TeamYAT

Join 3,000 adventurers of all experience levels & ages and Walk, Jog or Run the spectacular Jurassic Coast – a World Heritage Site. Choose from the full 100km challenge, 75km, a 50km half challenge, a 25km quarter, Jurassic Marathon or even a 10km distance. Starting from Corfe Castle, the route heads to Swanage, then along to Lulworth Cove, past Durdle Door, with ups and downs all the way to the Weymouth halfway point.

For 100km challengers – it’s past Portland Bill, nature reserves, along the western end of Chesil Beach to West Bay’s famous cliffs, before a finish line celebration in vibrant Bridport. With full support and great hospitality all the way – there’s a challenge here for everyone!

Your entry includes free food and drink at regular rest stops, plus support including medics, marshals and massage. As you cross the finish line, you’ll get a glass of fizz, t-shirt, and a medal to commemorate your achievement.

Registration details

You have three options – either apply for charity sponsorship or mixed funding places and commit to a fundraising target for Youth Adventure Trust, or, purchase your own place and we’ll support you to raise as much as you can without being committed to a set target.

Option 1: Charity Sponsorship place

You pay a small registration fee, do lots of fundraising and we cover the cost of your event place!

100km Registration fee: £40 and Sponsorship pledge: £575
Shorter distances and lower fundraising targets are also available

Option 2: Mixed Funding place

Pay half of the event place cost yourself, fundraise a bit less and we pay the balance of the event place cost.

100km Registration fee: £100 and Sponsorship pledge: £300
Shorter distances and lower fundraising targets are also available

Option 3: Self Funded place

You pay the full cost of the event place – fundraise whatever you can, with no set target or deadline, and there’s no event place cost at all to the charity – us!

100km Registration fee: £198
Shorter distances and entry fees are also available
