Can you summon your Royal Marines “Commando Spirit” and push your physical and mental limits further than ever before in this  ultimate charity endurance challenge?

The “Since 1664” Yomp is a unique charity endurance challenge of epic proportions, with a self-fund option for those who “just fancy a stroll in the park”.

The ultimate charity endurance challenge! 40% of Everest, 100 miles non-stop, 36 Hours

Be under no illusion that this is “just” a stroll in the park, even though it literally is a stroll of the whole of the stunningly beautiful South Downs National Park!  The climb (and decent) is the equivalent of 40% of Mount Everest but over 100 miles and in 36 hours. It is approximately 90% of the length of the M25 or London to Birmingham and more than twice the Leeds to Manchester distance.  Whilst it is a huge physical challenge, itis an even more immense mental test.  One foot in front of the other for about 36 hours and getting on for 1/4 Million steps.
