There has been an update to the Event Manual: Event Day Timeline. This change relates to the time and location of the pre event briefing (previously at Portland Bill now at the WPNSA). Please refer to the manual for full details.


The Jurassic Quarter is an undulating 46 mile Ultra Marathon along the South West Coast Path in the UK. The course covers almost half of England's only natural World Heritage Site, The Jurassic Coast.

The task is brutally simple: to run non-stop from Portland Bill Lighthouse to the eastern end of the Jurassic Coast at Old Harry Rocks.

This Jurassic Coast ultra marathon challenge can be undertaken as a solo, relay team of two (pair) or relay of four (quad). The atmosphere is of keen and friendly rivalry.

Following 46 miles of mesmerising coastline there are innumerable steep climbs and descents. This is the ultimate trail runner's rush. Be under no mistake, every runner must be well prepared both mentally and physically.
