A person in a blue shirt and red backpack runs on a grassy coastal trail with a bay and village in the background. The sea is visible to the left, and hills and houses are on the right. Tall grass lines the path. Two men wearing running gear jog along a rocky coastal path. The ocean is visible in the background, with waves crashing against the cliffs under an overcast sky.

Organiser's Description

Now in its 20th year the more windswept and, some might say, interesting younger sibling of the Jurassic Coast Challenge. The route starts near Padstow and finishes at Lands End. Complete up to 78.6 miles (3 marathons) over 3 days by walking, running or crawling, putting your mental and physical prowess against some of the wildest coastlines in Britain.

Dare to complete 1, 2 or 3 days. Every Atlantic Coast Challenge starter receives an event T-shirt and every finisher receives a classic challenge medal and a Cornish Pasty.

Organized by Epic Endurance Events CIC. The event team will take care of everything at the event for you so all you need to concentrate on is completing the distance each day.
