Take on the Kent Downs 50 Ultra Challenge in the 'Garden of England' with up to 2,000 other adventurers on Saturday 10th October 2026. Take it at your pace as you walk, jog or run - all while raising funds for King's!

The 50km looped route heads anticlockwise on the North Downs Way to Blue Bell Hill, following the River Medway to Mote Park at halfway for a picnic. Along the Len Valley Walk to the majestic Leeds Castle, and the North Downs Way back to the showground finish line.

Sign up as an individual or as a team; you’ll get full support all the way, plenty of food & drink, optional camping & transfers, a special medal, T shirt and celebration finish. With 25km & 10km options also available – there’s a challenge for you!
