The Purbeck Nordic Walking Marathon takes place during the Purbeck Nordic Walking Festival
Swanage, Purbeck and the Jurassic Coast has spectacular history, landscapes and views that make it the perfect place to hold this festival. The course with around 3000 feet of climbs provides a predominately off-road route that is both challenging and rewarding. Please note that this is More than just a Marathon in more ways than one! The course is closer to 27 miles rather than the conventional 26.2. Don’t worry, the extra mile is the easiest bit of the course!
Each entrant will receive a Medal, Goody Bag and Event T-Shirt on completion of the event.
