About the event

The Thames Challenge is a multi-stage ultra-endurance event following the entire Thames Path National Trail. Participants traverse England’s longest river path, from its source in the Cotswolds to its mouth at the Thames Barrier in Greenwich. The route offers a continuously evolving backdrop of countryside, towns, and historic landmarks. Structured into distinct stages, each segment functions as a standalone race and an essential part of the full challenge. Finishers receive a bespoke medal, which combines with others to form a jigsaw map of the trail, and a unique event item. Trophies are awarded to overall male and female winners.

Highlights

Four races, one epic journey – challenge yourself across 184 miles in four unique stages.

Collectible medals – form a complete jigsaw map of the Thames Path.
