Well done Threshold events. It was a very well organized event. Absolutely fantastic. They moved a 1000 people around without any problems. Pit stops were well stocked. Crew was absolutely fantastic. Super helpful, encouraging, cheering you on. The campsite was clean and everything to make it as comfortable as possible.

All in all everything was great. I will be back.

Organiser's description

Walk, jog or run along the stunning South Downs Way to the burial place of the first Kings of England. The breathtaking route starts near Arundel in West Sussex and runs through the South Downs National Park, until you reach the climactic finish on the steps of Winchester Cathedral. Fully supported from the second you sign up, you can choose to take on this challenge in one incredible day or spread the journey over two days and relax at overnight basecamp.

We have a range of packages on offer over the weekend. Check out the options below and then get rallying a team of people to join you on the start-line. If you’re thinking about breaking it into two days and are not sure about camping, rest assured that it is a highlight of any weekend with Threshold. Forget pokey showers and cold beans; think proper food, good bars, and an awaiting tent. It’s not 5 star luxury… it’s a lot more fun!
