Event overview

Classic Jack - This 18 mile point to point race between St Just and St Ives is by far, the most stunning and demanding part of the coast path. This race is not for the faint hearted but be assured, you will take away with you an adventure you will never forget. The route has everything a trail can give. From muddy fields to rocky headlands. The steep paths and the endless bogs. Each turn and every hill offers a new challenge but with that comes rewards. And if that wasn't enough..... Ultra Jack - Take the classic and times it by 2. Twice the mud, twice the hills and of course, twice the fun. This race starts at St Ives and watches you head out to Cape Cornwall. Make your turn and speed on back. Simple As you are not heading into St Just, this race comes in at 35 miles with 7000+ feet of elevation.

This event is part of Cousin Jack.
