Set across the breathtaking South Downs, runners can choose from a full marathon, half marathon or 5-mile trail run and you can even run with your canine friend, each packed with rolling hills, coastal views, and a friendly, community spirit. Every entry supports Ferring Country Centre and local Sussex charities, making every mile truly meaningful. Unlike crowded seafront runs, the Three Forts Challenge offers space, challenge and purpose.
