Pilgrim Challenge 2027

Run, jog or walk your way across the impressive North Downs Way - firmly established as one of our most popular events.

Follow in the footsteps of pilgrims travelling to Canterbury as you pass through stunning landscapes steeped in history.

The race soaks up ancient countryside, picturesque villages and areas of outstanding natural beauty. As with all of our events, everything is taken care of at the Pilgrim Challenge so you can focus on the experience! Overnight accommodation, evening meals, showers, breakfast, food and drink at checkpoints, free parking, and even inspiring guest speakers in the evenings are all included. There is also an option to provide your own accommodation and food - stay in a local hotel and we will shuttle you there and back.

There's a 10% discount available for all serving military or emergency services staff. To book with your discount, please email us: info@xnrg.co.uk.
