If you’re looking for a nice steady stroll along a beautiful part of the Great British coastline then the Jurassic Coast Challenge is definitely for you, assuming of course you’ve got nerves of steel and balls to match!
Such an amazing event. 1st Half conquered. It was brutal and the hills kept coming. Everyone was kind and chatty and checked on each other. We had a fab time. Scenery was stunning. Will be back for second half next year.
