About This Race Series

The South Downs Triple Crown is a new challenge that will begin in 2025. It is formed of 3 of our ultra distances and must be completed in order, in a calendar year. The 3 races are Hibernal Hills 50 miles, South Downs 100K and Winter on the Downs 55 miles. We wanted to set a realistic and sensible challenge that is fairly achievable for most and one that will test runners in a variety of different conditions throughout the year. The times of year these races are set will each give their own unique challenge and determine if runners can conquer the South Downs and be crowned the triple king or queen. Whether it be rain, mud, heat, humidity, wind, ice, snow, freezing temperatures, hail, fog, hills, darkness, these 3 races will likely throw everything at you and to complete all 3 will really be a fantastic achievement. There will be a fantastic Triple Crown buckle to commemorate the achievement and of course, lots of bragging rights!
