Are you ready to push yourself further while experiencing the stunning beauty of the Isle of Wight? The Isle of Wight Ultra Challenge 2025 is back, and we’re calling on locals to get involved!

An Ultra Challenge is a walk, jog, or run on your choice of 10 miles, 25km, 50km, or the Full Island 106km loop around its breath-taking coastline. Whether you’re an experienced athlete, or looking to step into the world of fitness, the fully supported events welcome all abilities, experiences and ages! With regular rest stops, free food and drink, first-class medical and support teams, and an incredible community atmosphere, you’ll have everything you need to achieve something extraordinary.

You can sign up to support great local or national charities, or self-fund your challenge and experience the Isle of Wight in a whole new way on your personal fitness journey. Plus, as a local, you’ll have the home advantage – why not challenge friends, family, or colleagues to join you?

It’s time to lace up your trainers, take in the coastal air, and set a new goal for 2025. Will you take on the challenge?

The action takes place on May 3-4, with base camps at Chale and Cowes.
