Joust 12 Hr and 24 Hr Challenge

The Joust 24hr (J24) and 12hr (J12) are endurance running challenges designed for both solo competitors and teams. Set on a private farm estate, the race follows a 5.5-mile looped off-road course, which varies slightly each year. The terrain is relatively flat, well-marked, and fully marshalled, making it suitable for both seasoned ultrarunners and first-time endurance participants. Participants in the J24 can compete solo or in teams of 2, 3–5, or 6–8 runners, taking turns to cover as many loops as possible within 24 hours. The J12 offers a more focused objective: run 50 miles within 12 hours—once completed, you're free to relax and cheer others on. Both formats promote a mix of grit, strategy, and camaraderie, making this event a standout in the UK endurance calendar.
