Event overview

Heading south from Redcar following the King Charles III England Coast Path, you’ll finish in the beautiful fishing town of Whitby. You’ll pass the ‘Circle’ sculpture in between miles 7 and 8. Affectionately known as The Charm Bracelet, it’s name inspired the marathon. You’ll pass through coastal villages, run on the sand, watch the world from high up on the cliffs, and immerse yourself in everything the Cleveland Way has to offer. The Charm Bracelet Marathon is a trail running event, so don’t expect it to be easy under foot. You will encounter mud, sand, rocks, trees, and more mud! The event is also suitable for quick walkers. There is 3263 ft of elevation over the 26.57 mile route, so if you’re looking for a nice flat race this one probably isn’t for you..

4 steps to wellbeing
Sleep well

A good night's sleep is an essential foundation for a healthy lifestyle, effective training and weight control.

Train slow

Low-intensity training is easier for you, reduces the risk of injury and helps builds an efficient aerobic system.

Eat natural

Cut out sugar & junk food, reduce carbs, eat natural foods and train your body to burn fat for fuel.

Get outdoors

Fresh air, natural light and reconnecting with nature all help to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
