This 50-mile race runs along the entire North Downs Way National Trail in England. It runs from Farnham (Surrey) to Knockholt Pound (Greater London) Eastbourne and is fully supported by 6 aid stations, medical support and course markings. The markings combine North Downs Way marker posts (National Trails) and markings placed by the organization when deviating from the path.
The 300 places require a minimum qualification standard: having finished a marathon race within the cut off time required during the period of time established by the organisers for each NDW50 edition.
The time limit is 13 hours and partial cut offs are in place at each aid station. All 6 aid stations include drinks, sweet and savoury snacks. Hot drinks and food will be available at the finish line.
Drop bags and pacers are not permitted but crews are. There is a compulsory kit requirement and checks will be carried out before, during and after the race.
This race awards points for UTMB.
