** DOG ENTRIES HAVE NOW SOLD OUT**
Set in the home of Maverick Race, the X Series Jurassic Coast race has four trail routes that will take you on an invigorating adventure around the Isle of Purbeck and along part of the 95-mile stretch of the famous Jurassic Coast.
All routes start just outside the picturesque village of Corfe Castle, where you’ll then run steadily across marshland gradually making your way towards the coast. Our 50km route will take your right down to the tip of the Purbecks at St. Aldhelm’s Head before heading on a 20km stretch along the coastal path. You’ll be treated to nothing but unparalleled views of the English Channel to your left and the distinctive white chalky cliffs up ahead.
We are so excited to welcome you to where Maverick Race all started and the trails that inspired us to get outdoors and start exploring. We can’t wait to share our favourite paths, hills and views with you, knowing you’ll be stunned and challenged in equal measure. Whether you are brand new to trail running or have run many times before with four distances to choose from there is something for all levels. Please note, there is no outpost on the Short route.
There aren’t views in the UK quite like the Jurassic coast and no-one does trail running events quite like us, so join us in October, you won’t want to miss out.
