Lake District Ultra Challenge
England’s finest countryside at your own pace. Challenge basecamp is in Kendal, and it’s a 100km loop taking in a couple of tough hills, the Garburn Pass, historic Ambleside, a half way point by Lake Windermere, forests & nature reserves – with some stunning views en-route, before a huge welcome & celebration back at basecamp after a momentous journey. You’ll get full support & hospitality, optional camping / hostel – and with half, marathon, quarter & 10K distance options also, there’s a Lake District Challenge for everyone! Challenge yourself whilst supporting more deaf people to leave loneliness behind and reconnect with life!

Nic says: "I’d definitely recommend taking part in an Ultra Challenge. There are different distances to choose from, and you can walk, jog or run. The event had a brilliant atmosphere and was really well organised. Doing the challenge for Hearing Dogs really motivated me to get out and do the training, and I was so happy when I crossed the finish line knowing I’d raised money for a charity that makes such a difference to so many people."
