The Saltmarsh75 is a two day Ultra Marathon, where competitors tackle 75 miles of some of England’s most unique coast line, the Saltmarsh Coast of the Maldon District.

Take on the challenge as a walker, a runner, or a bit of both, the choice is yours. If you’re not quite up for the full challenge, then we have a variety of packages to suit all, including our new duo option.

We welcome both walkers and runners and you can compete as an individual, in relay teams, or as a duo.

Over one amazing weekend, you’ll travel the entire length of Maldon District’s Saltmarsh Coast. Beginning at South Woodham Ferrers, you will pass through Burnham-on-Crouch, Bradwell-on-Sea, and then Maldon, Tollesbury and finally Salcott-cum-Virley. That is, of course, if you make it that far!
