Special notice for participants from previous years:

We’re thrilled to welcome you back for another season of unforgettable trail running! As we gear up for 2024-25, we’ve made a small but important change that we wanted to make clear to you.

This season, we’ve decided to streamline the events by removing complimentary t-shirts from most events - including this one. This change allows us to keep event entry prices affordable—something we feel is important. To give you an idea, since 2018, the entry fee for a 10K has only increased by £2, despite significant rising costs. Thanks to improved efficiencies, we’ve been able to keep this increase minimal, ensuring you continue to get good value.

But don’t worry—you will still have the opportunity to grab an Endurancelife t-shirt (or other awesome event merchandise) at a heavily discounted price during Check-in. We hope you’ll take advantage of this great offer and wear your Endurancelife gear with pride!

This event is part of the Endurancelife 24 - 25 trail running season (September 2024 till July 2025). Runners who complete any distance category at this event will be awarded points and will be listed in the Season Leader Board. Points are awarded based on performance and can contribute to a participant's overall season score. Good luck! Read more here.

Check-in! : We will be asking all registered participants to check in online approximately two weeks from the event. The Check-in process will result in a simpler event experience for you by removing the usual on-the-day administration. Within the Check-in process we will ask you to: 1) Confirm your preferred postal address to enable your participant number to be posted out and, 2) Watch the mandatory event safety video.

Endurancelife Dorset 2024 - Launched!

We are delighted to launch today the 2024 event. As per the last few years the event will be based from Swanage which makes a perfect location with easy access, plenty of local accommodation and lots of other fun things going in the town over the weekend! This is a great spot to have a pre Christmas weekend away.


Given World Heritage status in 2001, The Jurassic Coast Path through Dorset is quite simply unique. This is the only location on the planet where in a few short hours of trail running you will travel through a few million years of earth time - all with the ocean as a glorious backdrop. Oh yes, and those years are represented in hills...

Come and join us for our Dorset 10K, half marathon, marathon, and ultra courses – a tough trail runner's paradise.

This event is part of the 2024-25 Season Leaderboard. Learn more here.
