About the event

Run the Jurassic Coast

This trail run offers a breathtaking journey along some of the most striking stretches of the Dorset coastline. Much of both routes is rewarded with panoramic views across the Jurassic Coast.

As you descend from Thorncombe Beacon, the rugged cliffs and open sea provide a dramatic backdrop. The course combines well-trodden trails, grassy slopes, tracks, paths and short road sections.

The final stretch brings runners back towards West Bay before a flatter run to the finish. Runners, walkers and Jeffers are all welcome.

INDIVIDUAL ENTRIES

One Entry Per Runner

All entries must be completed individually for each runner. This ensures we have the correct details for everyone taking part.

We require each runner's full details, including their date of birth, as this is used to calculate age-group categories and age-group placings in the official results.

Individual entries also ensure that the correct runner is linked to their race number and finishing time on the day.

If you're entering with friends, family or a club, that's absolutely fine — just complete a separate entry for each person.
