You start at Matterley Bowl near Winchester, loop round the estate, then join the South Downs Way and follow it east to its end at Eastbourne. The course is fully marked, with 12 aid stations, full medical cover and a 30-hour cut-off. It is about 85 percent trail, with around 3,800 m of climbing. Pay close attention to the turn out of Alfriston at mile 91, where the route takes the bridleway through Jevington. Entry is first come, first served, and you need a qualifying 50-mile race finished inside 15 hours.
