Organiser's Description
SATURDAY 17 OCTOBER 2026
CORFE
Set in the home of Maverick Race, we are excited to offer you five trail routes that will take you on an invigorating adventure around the Isle of Purbeck and along part of the 95-mile stretch of the famous Jurassic Coast.
Our three routes start just outside the picturesque village of Corfe Castle, where you’ll then run steadily across marshland, gradually making your way towards the coast. The Ultra and Half Marathon routes will pass the epic Old Harry's Rocks and traverse along coastal ridge-lines via the Purbeck Way. Our Ultra route will take you right down to the tip of the Purbecks, past Winspit Quarry, before reaching the notorious steps at St. Aldhelm's Head. You'll cruise along the Hardy Way and catch a glimpse of Corfe Castle as you descend across Knowle Hill. The finish line is nearing, and you can almost hear the sound of the Maverick cowbells ringing you home...
We are so excited to welcome you to where Maverick Race started, and the trails that inspired us to get outdoors and start exploring. We can’t wait to share our favourite paths, hills and views with you, knowing you’ll be stunned and challenged in equal measure. Whether you are brand new to trail running or have run many times before, with five distances to choose from, there is something for all levels. Please note that there is no outpost on the Short route.
There aren’t views in the UK quite like the Jurassic Coast, and no one does trail running events quite like us, so join us in October. You won’t want to miss out.
