Location: Putney, London
England’s greatest river provides a fantastic backdrop for an unforgettable challenge, which you can take on at your pace as a walk, jog, or run. From the Putney Bridge start line, the full 100km route heads upstream to Henley along the famous Towpath, through Richmond, Hampton Court, Runnymede, and Windsor, with some wonderful scenery and a riverside finish line.
There are 100km, 75km, 50km & 25km distance options, plus the Henley 10km.
Sign up as a team or individual – everyone’s welcome! There are rest stops with snacks & drinks, a special medal, and a celebration at the finish line before you head home.
Please remember to select Battersea Dogs & Cats Home as your chosen charity when registering.
Please note, there is a cost to Battersea when you sign up. We therefore ask that you commit to raising the fundraising target to ensure that as much of your sponsorship can go to helping our dogs and cats as possible.
