Course

Teams of four cover 100km non-stop along the South Downs Way, starting from Queen Elizabeth Country Park at 6am on the Saturday and finishing at Brighton Racecourse within 30 hours. The route follows countryside trails over rolling chalk hills with sea views, broken by manned checkpoints carrying water and, at checkpoint 7, hot meals. Support crews move between checkpoints by vehicle.
