Easter 50 Challenge

A seasonal walk, jog or run – and a good one! From our Windsor Racecourse basecamp, we have 3 looped routes through the Great Park with fantastic Castle views, along the Thames Path, and surrounded by wonderful British countryside. You’ll get a few Easter surprises, a medal & neck buff, hot food & drink at the finish – and it’s a great event to kick off the season, to test those legs, and get in shape!

Join us the weekend before Easter, and energise yourself for the summer months ahead. Windsor is the historic back-drop, the surrounding countryside is superb, it’s easy to get to, there’s plenty of parking, and the racecourse is a perfect basecamp to start & finish your challenge.

  • 10km Loop – An energising loop through the heart of historic Windsor, a town set upon the Thames
  • 25km Loop – with a rest stop at historic Runnymede, and back to basecamp via the Castle’s Great Park, there’s gorgeous countryside, the Thames Path & a beautiful town all to take in.
  • 50km Loop – takes on the 25km Loop, then after lunch at halfway, the next 25km holds the famous Thames Path, Eton College and Dorney Village.

– Transport: pre & post challenge bus transfer options from Slough Station (good links to London) & parking available at the basecamp make it easy to join!
