Take on some of England’s most stunning countryside – your way – and raise life-changing funds for Teenage Cancer Trust.
The Lake District Ultra Challenge starts and finishes at basecamp in Kendal, with a 100km looped route that winds through breath taking scenery, up some tough climbs, and past the spectacular Lake Windermere at the halfway point. Whether you walk, jog, or run – this is one adventure you won’t forget.
Join up to 2,000 adventurers and push yourself for an incredible cause. Go solo or with a team – and take on the full 100km, or opt for a 50km half, marathon, quarter, or 10km distance. There’s something for everyone!
You’ll be fully supported every step of the way – with rest stops, food & drink, medics, camping & transfers, a finisher’s medal, a T-shirt, and an epic celebration at the finish line.
Push yourself in 2026 – take on an Ultra Challenge and make every step count for young people facing cancer.

Why support Teenage Cancer Trust
We create world class cancer services for young people in the UK, providing life-changing care and support so young people don’t have to face cancer alone.
